Current notification policy based on last focus time is not reliable

[TonyKnott]

Binary package hint: gwibber

Consider the following use case:

1 - I set gwibber to refresh each 5 minutes
2 - gwibber refreshes
3 - after 2 minutes, someone sends me a message
4 - after 1 more minute, I open gwibber to post something or read a previous post
5 - I close gwibber

After 2 more minutes, gwibber refreshes, receives a new message and I am *not* notified because the last focus (step 4) happened *after* that message was sent. Gwibber should check if the new message was *received* and not *sent* after the last focus.

I noticed that there`s a "is_unread" property, but I don`t see this property being set to true anywhere.
