Although devs are far more likely to be time constrained than lazy, or maybe just ignorant, Rockstarzzz is right. Extending the OS to compensate for the failings of particular apps is one of the worst ways to evolve any OS. All that achieves is to encourage more developers to release lousy apps, while MS incorporates more and more functionality to counteract others failings. Over time, such a development process leads to an OS full of compromise and mediocrity, that loses touch with its founding principles (simple, fast, reliable and free of technical micromanagement)
So, assuming MS is delivering a notification system, I'm sure they do see a legitimate need for it, and that it isn't just viewed as a way to compensate for app developer failings. It may also be where MS implements universal search.
