That concern is true, but I think it's kind of consistent. E.g. it is used in tabbox to close a window. It's also possible to be used in present windows to close a window by middle click, but there it is configurable. I thought about exactly that issue and about adding a config option to it, but I think it is overkill. It is a hidden feature, you normally don't middle click a notification or an entry in the tabbox. So the chance to do harm - especially for notifications - is rather low. On the other hand what do you want to achieve if you click a notification?
