I have three audio devices, and I have a script to cycle the
current sink to use the next device. Currently, with the broken
notify-send, if I hit a hotkey to cycle to the next device I am unable
to see which current device is active unless I pause for 5 seconds
each time I want to switch devices. This makes notify-send totally
useless.
It seems as if the Ubuntu UI developers have a deep seated inability
to contemplate the possibility that other people have useful and
productive things to say. What a nice way to treat people who are
basically volunteering their labor to help make Ubuntu better.

Yes, but those abilities are not possible with notify-send.
