When I source your script on macOS with the current devel build, I get the
set of notification messages and termination with a false argument, and an
infinite loop with a true argument.

So basically, 'wait -n' should be implemented such that sourcing the
script with a false argument gives the same behavior as you've seen
when sourcing it with a true argument: the infinite loop.

How long should notification be deferred? Until the script completes?
Because notification in an interactive shell is the core of what we're
talking about here.
