notify

A system for sending notifications to the user. This contains a couple of components:

• A service that listens on a port, tracks notifications and history, etc.
  • This service should be running on a system that has a user sitting in front of it
  • The base implementation will tie to notify-osd
• A client that submits notifications to the service
  • Parameters should include:
    • A message
    • A category/sub-category (optional)
    • A severity (optional)
    • Some icons maybe? (optional)
  • The client should also possibly print the message out locally, in case this is running remotely (through ssh) or if there isn't a running service.
