-    This class allows to show the user a message non intrusively. Currently it is
-    implemented natively only for the Maemo platform and uses (non-modal) dialogs
-    for the display of the notifications under the other platforms but it will be
-    extended to use the platform-specific notifications in the other ports in the
-    future.
