[Bug 1616994] Re: Firefox should allow showing of built-in DE desktop notifications for certain events

[Nikita Yerenkov-Scott]

** Description changed:

  I think it would be really nice if one could get built-in DE desktop
  notifications when certain events occur such as a download is finished.
  
  There could be a section in the Preferences which would allow the user
  to select which events they want to cause the desktop notification to be
  shown.
  
- Currently an addon is required to be installed to get this
+ Currently an add-on is required to be installed to get this
  functionality, but I think it would be much better if such functionality
  were built-in.

** Summary changed:

- Firefox should allow showing of built-in DE desktop notifications for certain events
+ Firefox should allow showing of a desktop notification when a download is complete

** Description changed:

- notifications when certain events occur such as a download is finished.
+ I think it would be really nice if like with other browsers Firefox
+ would show a desktop notification using the style of the DE/OS when a
+ download has been completed.
