I'm on the fence here as well. If we can remove an icon that doesn't bear any \
semantic meaning (the notification popups share, location and appearance already \
conveys "this is a notification". If we can avoid clutter, that's always a good \
thing.

I think the reasons Martin gives are invalid from a user point of view (adding an \
icon to fix layout sizing seems wrong).
