Bug Description

This bug is exacerbated by bug 1352602

To reproduce:-

1. In ubuntu system settings -> accounts, add a google or twitter account
2. Once created, enable the "Notifications" option in the account
3. Wait (also rebooting the phone can trigger this)
4. Tweets / email notifications are shown as notifications

Expected behaviour

* Pull down the messaging indicator and find lots of notifications to clear
* Find a button easily to clear the notifications

Actual behaviour

* Pull down the messaging indicator and find lots of notifications to clear
* Have to scroll many many times to get to the bottom of a gigantic list of notifications before finding the [Clear all] button.

In my opinion "clear" should be easier to find and hit

--------UX comment---------

All notification list items can disappear at once by tapping on the fixed Clear all button, positioned on the right hand side of the header. All items progressively fade away. If the notification centre is empty, the 'Clear all' button is not displayed.

I agree the button should be locked to bottom of screen and the list scrolled above it

Pat locked at the top might be easier and harder to hit when scrolling from the bottom, maybe?
