Description Zeeshan Ali 2015-03-25 15:06:51 UTC
With express install the ideas is that user starts it and then does other things (either on the same host, another host or goes afk) so it would be nice to notify user that installation is complete and they can now use the new box. In case of user going away from computer, they'll see the notification on the lock screen if they just move the mouse etc. Without notification, they'll have to unlock screen just to see if installation is finished or not.

    app: Add notify_machine_installed() method
    
    Add a method to launch a system notification to inform the user that
    installation of a box is complete. The notification is only launched if
    machine's window (which would be main window if machine is not running
    in any window currently) is not active.
