This is really obnoxious. I thought I'd get used to it once gnome3 and unity came out, but it's only made me more frustrated as time goes on. I miss the old gconf way of doing things, where a user could change anything they disagreed with. This seems more like locking the end users into the lowest common denominator of UI/UX in an attempt to fit in with The Big Two. The whole idea seems counter to the linux philosophy. I don't want to beat a dead horse, but I do want to restart a discussion. I think this needs a control panel with user customizable items like time to display, opacity, size, sound, position, and possibly the ability to dismiss simply by moving the cursor over it. However, I'd settle for just an X to dismiss.

The new notification system works fine, but it really bugs me that I'm forced to wait for those little messages to fade away by themselves. Should I suggest this somewhere else?
