What I don't understand is if the idea was to eventually have another method of handling notifications for updates, as opposed to the current method, then why not wait until that other method is complete? I don't understand why one would try and partially implement it and give the user a bad experience?
This seems parallel to when pulseaudio was first included and didn't work for the best supported cards and most user disabled it. Now it seems up to the quality level to be beneficial to the user and I'm glad it's included. I understand that not including it when it was would have hampered the adoption a little, but honestly, I'd rather have things that work.
