New notification area for notifications such as unread items, comments and mentions.

More notifications available:
Mentions from everywhere within noticeboard (not just within the notification channel set) and SharePoint pages with social enabled.

Unread comments now works from posts I have liked, commented, have created or am alternative author of (for noticeboard), or am “contact” for (for sharepoint pages with social enabled).

Performance tuning:

Notifications for items in SharePoint is potentially slow in large installations. In this release we offer two levels of improved performance, at the cost of functionality. This is done in feature toggles:

DisableACLCheckForSPItemsInNotificationOverview=True: Can be used to improve caching, by using a shared cache for SharePoint notification items across all users, resulting only in the first user to get a notification on a given SharePoint item, to see a performance penalty. This, of course, results in the possibility of a user possibly getting access to data about a SharePoint item that the user does not have read access to. This data will be the URL and Title of the SharePoint item – no more. When the user clicks the item, the user will get access denied from SharePoint, if the user does not actually have access. In most cases, the user will have access, because why else would the user get a notification.

DisableSPItemsInNotificationOverview=True: Can be used to completely remove SharePoint items from the notification overview panel, thus reverting to the performance-level of the prior release, but then also, of course, entirely removing this new functionality.
