Comment(by pde):

 Hi Nullishzero,

 I was just looking at this UI feature again in preparation for a 4.0dev7
 release.  I think the existing patch is good enough for that release, an
 improvement we could make is to align the text over on the right side of
 the notification box, and end it with an arrow of some sort that points
 upward.  It'll require some multi-platform testing to be certain, but I
 think in most or all cases that arrow will wind up pointing at the HTTPS
 Everywhere button that's just been added to the toolbar.

 I'm not sure if that's possible with simple XUL CSSery, or whether we'll
 need to use [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
 US/docs/Code_snippets/Alerts_and_Notifications#Custom_controls_in_notification_box
 this sort of method].  I just tried [http://pastebin.com/ZHeZJ5Xz this],
 but it didn't seem to work.
