We do not show that your account is running out of disk space in the
messaging menu, so I'm not sure how that applies. The only thing we show
in the messaging menu, are messages (Bob shared a new folder with you).
In this case, Bob is sending you a message via Ubuntu One, which is a
suite of services, some of which have social aspects, rather than an
application. There are applications that use Ubuntu One's services, yes,
and we provide the default set.

But the items we are showing within it, are messages from other users.
Perhaps I'm mistaken, but is that not what the messaging menu is for?
And I'm pretty certain we decided/agreed that was OK and the right place
to show those messages, at UDS. Not in the session you mentioned (and I
don't remember which exactly), though.

The way we're using the menu, is no different than having the "messaging
apps" be a bit smarter about what they show in the menu exactly. If for
example, imagine I shared a link to an image on Flickr with you, via IM,
Facebook, Twitter, or Google+; and seeing "Rodney shared a photo with
you" instead of "Rodney said: http://flickr.com/…"; Would not these also
belong in the messaging menu still? And should they result in a direct
conversation upon clicking, assuming no other conversational context, or
should it open the browser to the linked page on Flickr, or photo app
with that image, perhaps? Or has the messaging menu suddenly been
restricted to mean "only IM and e-mail applications can use it?"
