        <pre>According to <a href="https://webkitgtk.org/reference/webkit2gtk/stable/WebKitNotification.html">https://webkitgtk.org/reference/webkit2gtk/stable/WebKitNotification.html</a>
the WebKitNotification objects expose the following attributes:

 * body
 * title
 * id

Meanwhile, the HTML5 specification for WebNotifications includes a “tag” attribute and
a few others which are not exposed by WebKitGTK+. Documentation:

 * <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/notification">https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/notification</a>

In particular, the “tag” attribute can be used to indicate that one notification may
replace a previous one which has the same value for “tag”, instead of letting many
related notifications pile up in systems where replacing notifications is supported.
For example, when using “g_application_send_notification()” to display notifications
from a GTK+ application, it is possible to replace previous notifications, so it would
be desirable that WebKitGTK+ exposes the “tag” attribute in order to know when an
application running in an embedded WebKitWebView wants to replace a notification.

For an example usage of “tag” in the WebNotification API, see:
