notify-osd 0.9ubuntu2, Ubuntu Jaunty
At a terminal, enter:
1. notify-send 'test' '<b>Markup</b> should be <i>filtered</i>.'
2. notify-send 'test' '<b>Markup</b> should be <a href="http://example.com/">filtered</a>.'
What happens:
1. A notification bubble appears with body text 'Markup should be filtered.'
2. A notification bubble appears with body text '<b>Markup</b> should be <a href="http://example.com/">filtered</a>.'
What should happen, as defined in the spec <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD#Sanitizing%20body%20text>:
1. A notification bubble appears with body text 'Markup should be filtered.'
2. A notification bubble appears with body text 'Markup should be filtered.'
In a fallback alert box, the same code apparently causes the body text not to appear at all. <http://launchpadlibrarian.net/23735670/kerneloops-notify-bad.jpg> Fallback alert box text should appear, with exactly the same filtering as notification bubble text has.
Doing that will take some time.
