Description

I have a 2 suggestions regarding notifications on the dashboard.
1) To improve the usability of the dashboard while a notification is on the screen I suggest making the notification much less wide and having it initially show only one line and rolling over it would would display the rest of the message. If the user doesn't rollover it, the message will disappear after 5 seconds.
