Matthias asked me to forward interesting forum threads to the list, so here's the first one I've seen:

someone doesn't like black notifications :) FWIW I don't much like black either (on a related note I hope color customization makes it into gnome-shell soon). Not sure if there's anything to do here other than tell him he's wrong and Fedora believes Black Is Good, though :)

And here are two more (me is one of them) http://marilyn.frields.org:8080/~paul/wordpress/?p=2753#comments I already outlined my criticism a month ago in this list, so I'm not going to repeat it here.
To be fair, there are also people who like them. Paul wrote: "the newer notifications are more eye catching, which means they’re more effective at doing their job." I think this is no surprise, because the new notifications are *much* bigger then the old ones. Also, there is no discrimination between notification urgency [1], which IMO is a major drawback.
