It took me quite a while to grok what you're saying, although the code
speaks clearly enough for itself. To clarify for others who might not
have the stamina to apply the MUA-mangled patch and read the code for
themselves, the patch intends to make first_notification_delay depend
only on the first non-OK hard state change and not reset the timer for
new hard states that replace the one that initially triggered the
first_notification_delay.

Nice patch. I'll take this when I get back from the US on wednesday
next week. If you haven't seen anything around friday next week, feel
free to remind me.

Thanks.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
