Description Nate Graham 2019-01-31 17:50:45 UTC
Right now PassiveNotifications get missed when the window doesn't have focus or is obscured, because the countdown timer starts immediately. It should only start when the window has focus.

[PassiveNotification] Don't start timer until window has focus

Summary:
WIth this patch, the `PassiveNotification`'s timer only starts when its parent window
has focus. This is important on the desktop where it's common to work with multiple
windows at a time, and otherwise these notifications are very easy to miss, especially
when their parent window is minimized or behind another window.
FIXED-IN: 5.56

Thanks to @broulik for the patch!

Test Plan:
Open Discover, navigate to Source page, try to remove a Flatpak repo, then cancel the
password prompt and immediately sewitch to another window before the notification fires.
It will sit there on the window as long as it's inactive, and only disappear a few
seconds after the window gets focus.
