I knew that "idea" seemed awfully familiar. It amounts to a ripoff/extension of adept-notifier or I suppose now update-notifier-kde. Just using it for *all* notifications, not only system updates.

Just thinking back to another recent thread, having a single application there for notifications, which just remembers the messages and what to start when they are clicked on, might save a lot of valuable RAM. It seemed that some of the applications sitting there just to notify the user of something (sometimes even just waiting in case they need to notify and not actually displaying something) can take as much as 20Mb of RAM each, with update-notifier being a case in point.
