Not all notifications are equally important for a user all the time.
It makes sense to control the notification volume by starting from a specific instance right from the notification panel (close when the problem is identified). For example, the user getting too many notifications about a discussion page may want to adjust it to keep her informed only when she is directly mentioned.
The main challenge is how to present the right degree of control in a simple way, since there are many possibilities. For example, from a thanks notification from Cronopio about a comment in a discussion topic, should the volume options be about (a) the notifications from Cronopio, (b) the thanks notifications, (c) the specific topic. In addition, for each element there are possible "volume" levels possible (completely muted, only direct mentions, all events as bundle, all events individually, etc.).
Below, some initial idea on how the volume concept could be integrated in the notifications panel:

- The concept of postponing notifications to be acted on later is described at {T88781}. Hiding a notification for a while is also related to controlling the volume (showing only the notifications that are relevant), so we can consider it from this perspective.
