<div><br></div><div>The design itself is not a distraction. The notifications are hidden in the frame. Even when the frame activates the messages queue is still hidden in the palette. Only when the user activates the palette the messages queue is shown.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The messages are not lost since they are kept in the palette queue until explicitly removed by the user or when replaced by other when the queue is full.</div><div><br></div><div>I think that, design wise, complies with both criteria Gonzalo mentions.
