Comment 4 for bug 257135

@ Sebastien Bacher

I want to disclose up front that I really don't know the details of how bug importance is assigned, or what it really means for this to be "Low" importance.

That said, it does look like you have looked at bug #390508 (I see that you responded there), which many people have been quite vocal and upset about. In my opinion fixing this bug (#257135) in notify-send so that it can replace notifications would solve many people's problems on #390508. That is, I think it would solve the underlying issue for those who want to be able to specify a shorter timeout. With that in mind, would it be reasonable to increase the importance to something higher than "Low?" My concern is that if it is rated "Low" it may never really get worked on.
