1377239 - The onboarding notification should have "do not show this again" checkbox

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox :: New Tab Page, defect)

Description

[Tooru Fujisawa [:arai]]

Steps to reproduce:
  1. open Nightly 56.0a1 (2017-06-29) (64-bit) on macOS
  2. open a new tab
  3. click "x" button of the onboarding notification
  4. open a new tab

Actual result:
  onboarding notification appears with sliding animation every time I open new tab,
  that is very distracting, especially the animation is.

Expected result:
  the onboarding notification should have a checkbox with "do not show this again"

  Apparently the "Hide the tour" checkbox in the top-left fox icon disables the notification, but it's hard to discover it, when one wants to disable the onboarding notification that is shown at the bottom of the page.

@here: I spoke with @verdi and @jdavidson yesterday about the dismissal of notifications.  The decision is to stick with the currently designed experience, whereby clicking the x dismisses that particular notification, but the rest will still show.  Adding a tooltip on the x will be the simplest way to mitigate the issue.  We'll monitor for feedback in pre-release and in the diary study.  If we need to adjust we could consider an uplift later, but we're not too concerned.
