I can confirm that this bug renders notify-send effectively useless for
me, because I often have a terminal running full-screen (on my second
display) which prevents any notifications from appearing (on my primary
display).  I'm running 12.04.2 LTS with Unity 2D on a laptop with an
external monitor.

So, for example, in a (local) plug-in script I'm writing to display
notifications from an application, I've had to disable notify-osd
support, and instead look for an alternative mechanism.


Can anyone say whether this issue been fixed as a side effect of work on bug 
#1065425?  They seem related.
