It seems that this can be done in the vehicle.{h,cpp} framework in a standard manner, and work across all vehicle types. However, I guess that will break any notifications already being produced by other vehicle types.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">My suggestion is:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><ol class="MailOutline"><li class="">A config parameter ‘notifications’, with individual instances to turn on/off the notifications.

I will have to look into metrics to see how best that should be done; one neat way is to keep a modification count (rather than the current m_defined boolean).</li></ol></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Does that make sense?
