I for one hate the notification system in iOS and it's the main reason I jailbreak. I know other people have voiced their dissatisfaction with the notification system and often compare it to WebOS and Android.
I was genuinely excited when I heard Apple hired Rich Dellinger, the guy behind the WebOS notification system and I haven't even ever used WebOS - but it has to be better than what the stock iOS notification system consists of.
But now I'm left wondering when we will see Dellinger's influence. I would love to see a reworked notification system in 4.1 but I'm afraid Apple will hold off on it until they (presumably) release iOS 5 next summer. And even then I'm worried that Apple doesn't realize just how bad it is and they shelve any attempt at reworking the system.
Speculate away.
