[Suggestion] HTML5 desktop notifications for n most voted on questions

[philpav]

As discussed in our email conversation, an ability to allow HTML5 desktop notification for given roles and a predefined heat threshold, e.g. pop up the 3 most on voted questions on the lecturer's desktop during his presentation (in a non obtrusive way).
Thanks ;-)

Chrome's HTML5 notifications don't take focus (don't appear) if there's currently an application in fullscreen mode e.g. a ppt presentation.
There's an HTML5 notifications addon for Firefox though which overrides also apps in fullscreen/presentation mode.

I still think this feature is worth to be implemented. And a short notify sound perhaps is helpful for teachers who are in fullscreen mode

Sorry, I didn't mean to close the issue.
I think it would be definitely an interesting feature and if you write about it on the Moodle forums I'm sure there will be other willing testers.
