In the first place, thanks for answering.
In the other hand, I think it could be added "easily" despite I'm not a
programmer:
First, KDE already has code for disabling compositing when an app runs in
fullscreen mode, so a little snippet of code could be inserted nearby, and
Second, all KDE's notification (in 4.4 at least) are "wrapped" into the new
"notify library", so I think it should not be that difficult to make all
"invisible" automatically.
The last but not least, could be implementing a DBUS call to simplify this
proccess: KDE could use this DBUS call to "say" libnotify that it should not
show anything, and also, could add the possibility for a user to send this
DBUS message in their own profit.
Any developer can post his opinion?
Thanks.
