notifications.el uses the D-Bus specification of the
org.freedesktop.Notifications service on the session bus. Of course,
there could be an implementation of this service inside Emacs.

But according to the D-Bus architecture, there can be only one service
using a given service name at a time; the Emacs notification daemon
would need to replace the desktop's default notification daemon, which
might not be desirable (except you regard Emacs as *the* desktop, aren't
you?)
