Yes, that works for the desktop user.

Not always. My desktop runs 24/7. Unless a notification stays up until I acknowledge it, it's not going to do me a bit of good if it comes up while I'm sleeping, or otherwise away. One thing I like about both abrt and the SELinux Troubleshooter is that they stay in the notification area until you look at them.

Yes, all critical notifications are supposed to stay persistent. That is the right model to alert desktop users about anything relevant enough to bother them with. Not emails.
