Bug Description
The fixed width of notifications seems too small as common notification messages get chopped. See attached. I can see limiting the number of characters but it seems the current limit is too small as almost everything gets reduced. In theory it could cause confusion as some notification would look the same.

Either one of the following things should be done:
- limit the title to fit in the notification
- make sure notifications have variable widths. But then notifications shown at the same moment should all have the same width. And when they all disappeared, the normal width should be used again. The problem is that when a smaller notification is on screen and a bigger notification (read wider) the previous notification should also change to a bigger size.
