Thanks for the report!

Paul, in the future can you please Clear the Browser Console before reproducing and then include any relevant output that appears?  There was probably an error in alert.js.

Kit, is this something you can debug on your 10.8 machine? I suspect we're calling into the OS X Notification Center code but then returning with a failure to fallback to XUL since we should be using native notifications on 10.8 AFAIK.

Thanks! The last line

is useful for troubleshooting this.

As of bug 1220337, we should be using native notifications on 10.8. "Do not disturb" shouldn't be shown in content preferences, since we rely on the system's do not disturb switch.

Unfortunately, 10.8 doesn't support the action menu. The user can only click on the notification to fire the `click` event, or drag to dismiss it. If the "Alerts" style is set in System Prefs > Notifications, we'll only show the "Close" button; otherwise, if "Banners" (the default) is set, we won't show any buttons.
