Show notification if Alfred has to be closed to collect list info #30

The first time the wl command is used, Alfred ends up getting closed because Wunderlist has to be activated in order to load its list info. This should only happen once but it could quickly give a new user the impression that the workflow is broken. Indeed, it's not something I want to happen in the first place but until version 1.0 when Wunderlist supports AppleScript there will be no alternative.

This experience could be improved a bit by showing a notification that explains what happened and asking the user to try again.

This is not a good solution. It would be preferable to return to the previous application and show Alfred again with the query the user was typing.
