Notifications to be displayed in the platform's Notification Center

Most platforms ship with a notification center of their own - on mobile devices this may be more prominent than on desktops, but they do exist. We're in progress of moving notifications shown by Chrome to be included in those centers as well. - Android (shipped in Chrome 42) - Mac OS X (ready to ship) - Linux (being implemented) - Windows (being prototyped) Other browsers already use native notification centers where available.
