Comment (by perelandra):
I have notifications being archived by the server now. Under
/boot/home/config/cache/Notifications I am saving one file for each
"group" notifications are sent to. This file is a flattened BMessage,
which stores BMessages containing data for each notification received by
the server. Each of the notification data messages stores:
-A copy of the original notification BMessage received by the server.
This preserves all notification data including onclick values.
-A timestamp when the message was received by the server.
-A bool indicating if the notification was shown when it was received.
Looking at the code indicates there were plans to implement filtering to
disallow specified notifications from being shown. If we do this, then
now the notification can still be archived to view later even if it is not
shown when sent.
Looking at the current Notifications preflet the way it is now would only
show limited information about archived notifications, no icon or onclick
info is preserved. I am thinking maybe we can change it so that instead
of a ColumnListView just showing text data we should actually preview the
notification view as it was displayed. Saving the entire original
notification message as I have done should make that possible.
