Bug Description
Binary package hint: unity
The difference between the "normal" and "demands attention" Icons (after the animation has settled) is not very visible, leading to chat messages getting ignored for extended periods of time.
The attached screenshot shows the difference between the "normal" and "demands attention" buttons.
Perhaps a larger (configurable) glow size could be done, or even the glow or background colour changed, or perhaps a more contrasting colour used in the triangular indicator?

In Unity 2D for Ubuntu 10.10, the icon always shake to demand attention, but in 11.04 only shake a couple of seconds. The behaviour of 10.10, demand truly attention.
Other behaviour is that the blue arrow use a horizontal move, forward and backward many times.
