Enhancement ideas for notification mechanism

[Phyks]

Hi,

I was thinking about the notification mechanism and thought about some things which could enhance it a bit.

First of all, I don't think it is using the desktop notification API. It could be useful for the user to have a replica of Cozy notifications on the desktop directly.

Second, users may go occasionally to their cozy, depending on their use case. Typically, a user who set up Konnectors to fetch monthly bills might rely on Cozy to fetch everything automatically. Then, they might visit their cozy instance only once in a while. I am not sure whether this is something planned or not, but it might be a really useful thing to have notifications sent by emails when the Cozy tab is not opened in one browser :)

Thank you for the feedback. The timing is perfect since we are in the process of thinking a new home. I added your suggestion to our backlog!

Thanks!

Also, I just noted that some apps (typically emails) use their own notification system, with a nice overlay, but does not feed the global notification center.
