Hey, is there any interest in getting this fixed?

Be reminded that due to this memory leak, notify-osd can easily take up a 1 GB of memory after the computer runs for a while. Just yesterday I had to manually kill it again in this situation.

Most laptops out there these days likely run on 4 GB RAM or less.

Spending 25% of an average user's machines on notify-osd's memory leak seems like something that should be addressed quickly, especially if the fix is trivial.
