It's a little more complicated. See my response to Aaron on this one. Ok, I agree about that one, only timeouts shouldn't work anymore. > * Notifications aren't grouped by application.

Another way to do it would be to show notifications from a single application one at a time. Or... I'm not sure. What I do know is that I sometimes get a lot of kopete notifications and presently they are just scrolling straight off the screen. This could well be an issue somewhere else though. Well, I think the user should be able to scroll through all of them. I think extender grouping support is definetly the way to go, having 2 arrow buttons on a group, and allowing a user to detach only one extender out of the group while leaving the rest of the items in the group. Maybe as a fix in the meantime, kopete shouldn't create that much notifications. But I think implementing your idea would just be a nasty temporary hack. > * Misbehavior of certain applets within the plasmoid protocol or > vice-versa.

Is this the fault of the systray applet? All it's doing is adding a widget to the extender and then doing a showPopup(). Is there something that the widget should be doing that it isn't? The widget hasn't really changed from extendified_notify... Well, on my system it doesn't seem to be added to the popup but just be made child of the systray applet itself. But I'm working on some changes to extenders (making them look just like in pinheiro's mockup), so maybe I just broke something in libplasma there. Good chance, if I'm the only one experiencing this problem.
