New FF notifications

I'm not sure I got everything right, but seems like FF enabled a new notifications feature[1] and it broke the previous behaviour for KDE.
Now all the notifications are displayed with something different from the plasma functions (screenshot attached).

Reproduce:
Go here[2] and press the "Notify me!" button. My result is on the screenshot and it seems very similar to all another FF notifications for now.
It's different from the plasma popups as displayed by "kdialog --passivepopup text" or "notify-send subj text".

All of that worked fine previously (plasma was used). I'm not sure for the exact version, but it may be FF 21 or 20.

SW versions:
firefox-23.0-1.fc19.x86_64
libnotify-0.7.5-5.fc19.x86_64
kdelibs-4.10.5-1.fc19.x86_64

Comment 1 Andrew 2013-10-23 09:29:43 UTC 
Thunderbird has the same, so it might be a subject to reassign to another component.

thunderbird-24.0-3.fc19.x86_64
firefox-24.0-1.fc19.x86_64
xulrunner-24.0-2.fc19.x86_64

FF28 still has it. Popup history (like plasma tray icon) is unavailable in this case—you easily miss some notifications.
Comment 3 Andrew 2014-07-18 11:52:44 UTC 
Still actual for firefox-30.0-4.fc20.x86_64
Just in case, thunderbird-24.6.0-1.fc20.x86_64 is OK with that.
Both shoud use xulrunner-30.0-1.fc20.x86_64
Comment 4 Andrew 2014-08-09 19:13:46 UTC 
Fixed in firefox-31.0-2.fc20.x86_64

I have F20, so tested just firefox-33.0-2.fc20.x86_64 (did nothing with xulrunner: 32.0-1.fc20.x86_64 installed). It does not have the subject issue and uses Plasma notifications as desired.
Comment 7 Martin Stransky 2015-01-19 18:04:10 UTC 
Okay, Thanks for the info.
