not only that, the X is a tiny target. I used to be able to just slap them 
away by clicking anywhere... now, honestly, I've given up. I just sit and wait 
for 5-10 seconds and do nothing until the half-screen of notifications chooses 
to go away.

of course, another problem to address here is that a lot of those notifications 
shouldn't have existed in the first place. every time I open a link I seem to 
get a bunch of spurious notifications... and thanks to the placement of my 
systray they appear right over the beginning of the web page I'm trying to 
view. :/

I'll be very happy when one day I can set my status to 'busy' (or switch to a 
school activity and have it set for me) and have all the normal-priority 
notifications (ie, everything except battery warnings) not pop up.
