Oh, you are saying notify-osd turns non-default timeouts into dialog
boxes? That's wrong, since the dialog boxes won't go automatically the
same way than notification bubbles go.

Arguably the usage should be fixed in gnome-mount, but in jaunty it's
almost impossible to collect the list of applications which are affected
by this (think about third-party apps).

It is gravely wrong to assume that all the software in the world will
instantly follow the semantics of notify-osd. This can be done
eventually, after a couple of cycles, but not immediately. Even ignoring
the timeout is better than converting it into a dialog, but for Jaunty
I'm inclined to say that we should respect the timeout, since it's
impossible to fix all applications which use timeouts in time.
