Comment 3 for bug 331950

I regard this as a low-priority access issue. The animation in notify-osd is now pretty limited, but I think it would be the right thing to have a hidden global "off" switch for animations. Especially in the future when you add fancy genie effects, or what not.

From section 508 1194.21
(h) When animation is displayed, the information shall be displayable in at least one non-animated presentation mode at the option of the user.
