Comment (by mcs):

 Kathy and I did some triage of this ticket because we thought it might be
 a macOS-only bug, but that is probably not true. It seems to be related to
 first party isolation of permissions. Using the following page for
 testing, notifications started to work after I changed
 `privacy.firstparty.isolate` to `false`:
 https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/notification

 On that page, grant permission for notifications when prompted and then
 click the "Notify me!" button.

 Arthur, any ideas?
