Basically, the notification manager (the icon in your screenshot) is
always in control about the behaviour. The manager can do whatever it
wants basically. So it could always show a new notification, if set to
do so.

Applications can request a certain behaviour, and the way that they send
notifications to the manager can affect how things appear. E.g. GNOME
apps usually use 'persistent' notifications (which is why I assume
they're behaving differently). But the 'manager' (again, the icon) is
always in control. That bit actually decides if to show a popup or not.

So suggest to file a bug against that icon.

Note that some apps do their own popups, I'm just talking about anything
linked against libnotify.
