Comment:

 I agree with stippi about BNotification - it seems pretty much superfluous
 at one side (vs. just using a BMessage), and unnecessarily inflexible at
 the other side.

 For example, shouldn't it be possible to send a flattened BView to show as
 a notification (using the replicant mechanism)? I think limiting that to
 an icon and some plain text is very limiting for no good reason.
