Not sure if this should *depend on* or *block* bug 32281 (shared notification infrastructure for user talk, lqt, watchlists, etc).

Need to be able to:
* fetch a count of 'unseen' notifications
* fetch a list of recent notifications, indicating which have been previously marked as seen
* set the last-seen cutoff

Can then be used to do live updates of 'you have new messages' on the web UI, a more detailed display of those (similar to, say, opening the 'notification' dropdown on Facebook).

Will also want long-poll, WebSockets-style, or Server-sent-events variants for more efficient usage, but these all require additional server-side support.

(See also sister bugs for iOS & Android push notification backends.)

Brion:
What's the status of this with Echo and Flow approaching?
After two years, is this still a "high" priority ticket?
Comment 4 Andre Klapper 2013-08-14 14:14:31 UTC
Putting priority lower, as the long-term is Echo and Flow.
