Comment 1 for bug 348377

This came from Bug 333517, where I had asked commented about the absolutely incessant and irritating problem where with service-discovery-applet, the notice window is almost CONSTANTLY showing up to indicate what services appear and disappear? I don't so much mind the notifications as I do that they are in a highly crucial part of the screen, rather than out of the way.

I am attending a conference and, using it as an example, notify-osd has already been active for the past hour quite literally non-stop. Rather annoying when it is sitting over the titlebar and tab area of browsers and apps, despite the fact that it will fade when mouse hovers. So much for being unobtrusive.

Mind you, I'm not sure that the service-discovery-applet is at fault. What else should it do, other than provide filters, when services come and go?
