Bug Description

I recently sent 11 photos from my Nexus One to my Ubuntu 10.04 laptop. All 11 files were sent successfully, but afterwords I had 11 annoying dialogs stacked up in the center of my screen. The responsible piece of software should use notify-osd instead of persistent dialogs.

Looks like it should be using <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotificationDesignGuidelines#morphing> instead.

Morphing alert boxes or windows are for urgent things. That you have received a file is not urgent. Instead, it should use a normal window, as shown in <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotificationDesignGuidelines#Normal%20window>.

Though this might very well be due to notify-osd changes we have in Ubuntu, but looks like this can benefit gnome as well. So forwarded it upstream too.
