I think that this could be reconsidered.

Ok, xul-ext-notify is a third party extension, but it brought a small but very interesting way to further integrate Firefox with Ubuntu. Since this project looks abandoned, wouldn't it be important for the Ubuntu team to try to bring this functionality back by some other way, without depending on a third party?

And I have to disagree that a non-interactive notification is useless. This is merely an opinion. I usually have several simultaneous downloads and I don't look at their files until much later, so I never click at the "download finished" native notification. This interactivity is useless for me. A simple notify-OSD would be much more pleasant and less distracting for me.
