Great plugin!

This isn't really an issue with the plugin. It's an issue with the demo site http://simsalabim.github.com/sisyphus/

Because the jNotify notification shows up on every keystroke, the page can quickly become filled with "Data are saved to Local Storage" after typing a relatively short test string.

Even assuming this doesn't annoy the user (if they think it's related to the plugin) it makes the download/fork links at the top of the page inaccessible.

At the very least, I'd recommend reducing the the jNotify timeout. Better, might be to swap out jNotify for something like https://github.com/jboesch/Gritter which doesn't cover up so much of the screen. (Though it looks like Gritter does upper right which covers the fork banner. I know I've seen some notification plugins that have customizable placement.)
