Review request for Plasma and Kai Uwe Broulik.


Bugs: 339732
    https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=339732


Repository: plasma-workspace


Description
-------

There can easily be situations where the popups could overlap one another or result in strange animations. This patch rewrites the notifications so that all actions such as show/reposition/hide are handled from a one single place and every action is properly queued and protected around, which makes it more robust, more predictive and less chaotic. There's also a slight delay between every action so it's also visually much more cleaner and easier to see what's going on.

Testing
-------

Tested whole day plus stress-tested with something like for i in {1..200}; do notify-send "$i - $RANDOM" "$RANDOM sdf sdf sdfwefhsdjfnskdfbkwefnos igodsfgn sodifgj asodfgnsdlfgdf g"; done executed from 4 terminals at once, all works fine and as expected.


Thanks,
