So the timer widget sends a notification that disappears before you see it?
Sounds like that's a bug in the timer using the wrong kind of notification. You
definitely need to know when the timer finishes; that's the whole point. So the
notification should not disappear.

These are "ignorable" notifications where nothing bad happens if you miss them.

This is a borderline case where the notifications are technically ignorable,
but if you miss the notification for an SMS that contains the code you were
waiting for it's annoying. Nothing bad happens, but you get annoyed and have to
do some extra work.

FWIW when your mouse cursor is within the area of the notification (for example
when you're going to select the text in the code) the timer stops. So you only
need to notice the notification within the default 5-second period. And we also
let you increase the number of seconds that auto-disappearing notifications are
on screen for too.
