What do you think should the indicator applet do for gnome-mount? |

Ok, that alert needs fixing, not least because it disgracefully asks that you "Please do not remove the media or disconnect the drive" when it knows very well that you already have. (See also bug 325315.) It has nothing to do with libindicate, though. |

gnome-mount 0.8-1ubuntu1, Ubuntu Jaunty
When a removable storage device is disconnected or removed without first being unmounted, gnome-mount puts up a "Writing data to device" notification that asks you not to do what you've already done. Because it is persistent, Notify OSD renders this notification as a suboptimal fallback alert box.
Instead, gnome-mount should use a proper error alert box with less futile text.
It may save time to fix bug 325315 at the same time as this bug.

gnome-mount 0.8-1ubuntu1, Ubuntu Jaunty
When a removable storage device is taking non-trivial time to unmount (flushing the cache), gnome-mount puts up a "Writing data to device" notification asking you not to disconnect it while that's happening. Because it is persistent, Notify OSD renders this notification as a suboptimal fallback alert box.
Instead, gnome-mount should use a progress window containing the warning text.
It may save time to fix bug 325315 at the same time as this bug.

Oh, you are saying notify-osd turns non-default timeouts into dialog boxes? That's wrong, since the dialog boxes won't go automatically the same way than notification bubbles go.
Arguably the usage should be fixed in gnome-mount, but in jaunty it's almost impossible to collect the list of applications which are affected by this (think about third-party apps).
It is gravely wrong to assume that all the software in the world will instantly follow the semantics of notify-osd. This can be done eventually, after a couple of cycles, but not immediately. Even ignoring the timeout is better than converting it into a dialog, but for Jaunty I'm inclined to say that we should respect the timeout, since it's impossible to fix all applications which use timeouts in time. |

"Hm, why is notify-osd rendering this notification as a dialog box? it's just a simple notification, it doesn't have actions..."
This is not because it has any non-default timeout, and it's not because the notifications are queued. It's almost cerainly because gnome-mount sets expire_timeout to 0, which means that the developer does not want the notification to expire by itself, as all Notify OSD bubbles do. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD#org.freedesktop.Notifications.Notify>
So yes, gnome-mount should use a progress window instead, as I said yesterday. I'll provide a mockup of that today. (I'll also add text to the notification design guidelines about not using notification bubbles to show progress; that's never been a good idea, and Notify OSD just makes that more obvious.) |
