We are talking about the [hide] button built into the central notices
themselves.

Yes one could do other things with personal CSS/JS but the behavior of
the normal [hide] button should be modified to hide only the current
notice, and not hide all presently active central notices.  In the
prior email I was saying there is no notice specific ID.  Yes, all
notices use id="centralNotice", but changing that to a notice specific
ID will break other things.

The link I included in the last email shows the JS code for central
notices, have a look for yourself.

Obviously there are multiple possible implementations, but the
existing one ought to be improved.
