Reconsider 'User agents should not display non-persistent notification in a platform’s "notification center"' part? #203

What is the issue with the Notifications API Standard?

User agents should not display non-persistent notification in a platform’s "notification center" (if available).

I don't think anyone follows this, AFAIK every engine puts non-persistent notification to the notification center, including Firefox, Chrome, Safari on Windows and macOS.

Firefox and Chrome puts non-persistent notification to the Windows notification center

I see no reason to not put it there as long as the triggering page is still open. It's added by 0005987711586c6bf2ed20a7e3f157db18a9e9b3, so perhaps @annevk may remember the background behind this.

Yeah, seems reasonable to remove this recommendation. Should probably not discuss the specific experience too much as what makes sense can easily change over time.
