Description Steffen Pingel

Provide provisional API in the commons that allows clients to show notification popups. This is closely related to bug 229823. Once the API has been stabilized in Mylyn we can consider moving it to platform.

This is now more relevant since it would be nice to support notifications for builds.

I have taken a first pass at this. A simple preference page under General > Notifications lists available event types. The idea is that the page will eventually provide a UI to wire events to notification sinks which display a popup, play a sound etc. Currently the only purpose of the page is to globally disable notifications.

Builds is now using this API. We need some kind of filtering as events will now be displayed both in a pop-up and in the builds view.

Also see bug 330064 for enabling/disabling notifications for certain event types.

The UI has changed and it's features have been improved somewhat. So I'm thinking a new screenshot and a more complete description would be in place.

I think we are done here. I'll update the screenshots for the final New & Noteworthy.

Thanks Steffen, I really like that solution. I can finally ignore some dreaded incomings :)
