Desktop Notifications module

[mikeslattery]

What should it do?

When a desktop notification occurs, capture the text message.

This is useful to know about new emails, calendar meeting reminders, IMs, system errors, etc. I find this the most useful pane in my dashboard (see workaround below).

Implementation

It would have separate implementations for Mac, and Linux.

Workaround

On Linux, I use cmdrunner to call a script I wrote that runs dbus-monitor "interface='org.freedesktop.Notifications'" and then uses sed to filter the text into something legible. It's possible to do something similar on Windows with a PowerShell script.

That would be a very cool module.
