+1 to docs for this, please. :)
My other question is similar to what Andrew asked earlier: what potential
is there for including something more than just strings?
My team just finished up a test where simple "your edit was saved"
confirmation messages lead to a significant bump in the editing activity of
newbies on English Wikipedia.[1] The only core differences between the
custom notification we built and bubble notifications are that it was
center-aligned and that it included a checkmark icon. I would prefer to
build on top of this if we're going to try and make an edit confirmation
message a part of MediaWiki.
