Quote from [1]:
  + libnotify
    - mixed feelings within the release team.
    - this is being used more and more, so it's pretty clear there's a
      demand for this.
    - some of us still strongly feel that it should live in one of the
      libraries we already have in our stack (probably GTK+). We'd like
      to see people working on integrating this in our stack, or
      explaining why it's not possible to do so.
    - what might be worth is accepting the dbus API: this is something
      that will happen more and more in the future (think Xesam, for
      example). The API probably needs to be standardized, though.

Can some people go to the xdg list, propose the dbus API and see if all
desktops are fine with it? That's really something that should be done.
