** Description changed:
With the recent indicator-datetime update the reminder notifications time out
and are not interactive any more, meaning that:
- can't dismiss (have to wait for the sound/notification to time out)
- can't snooze (I know the feature didn't work, but that was a missing
feature, not a thing we didn't want?)
- if you missed the notification, you missed the reminder
Not sure if the reason is the same, but they started queueing, too, i.e.
if there's two reminders for the same time, sound will play for both
(bug #1340248), but the two notifications will be shown one after
another.
This is a UX regression in my opinion, even if it fixes bug #1320880.
There is actually no clear design for this, I'm afraid,

+ ------ UX Comment ------
+
+ We've added the desired behaviour in the latest specification for
+ notifications bubbles:

+ Specific to remiders notifications: Notifications from missed calls,
+ calendar events and reminders, are exceptions and won't ever be
+ presented in a summary layout because of their different nature. They
+ are time-sensitive (especially if these events involve other people
+ actively waiting on a response) and may change the user's behaviour in
+ the real world.
