Description-en: daemon that displays passive pop-up notifications
The Desktop Notifications framework provides a standard way of doing
passive pop-up notifications on the Linux desktop. These are
designed to notify the user of something without interrupting their
work with a dialog box that they must close. Passive popups can
automatically disappear after a short period of time.
