Notification daemon should exit when not in use

Status: new

Patch Included: 0 OS/Distro Version:

Notification-daemon is a process that takes up memory even if it is not currently in use. However, after killall notification-daemon, the ability to display notification messages is not affected because dbus relaunches the service.

Notification daemon should quit when not in use to save memory (~3mb on my box). While it will slightly increase the time to display a notification, this does not seem like an issue (things that cause a notification are usually things that could wait 500ms).
