[Bug 348377] Re: service-discovery-applet displays too many notifications

[Noel J. Bergman]

 * provide filters

That's fine, and would be very useful, since people might care about
some, but not all, services.  Or services only on specific hosts, not
all hosts.

 * buffer some events so that instead of telling you 100 times that a
   new service is available, it would tell you that 100 similar services
   are available

There are classes of service for which the word "similar" does not apply
because it is the specific instance that matters.  I'd suggest seeing if
filtering can handle this issue before attempting to discard
notifications based solely on buffering out similar service types.

Filtering could be on service type, service name, host name, host IP,
subnet, etc.
