> Additionally, clicking on "Done" once you're in the notification-specific page will navigate you away from the current page back to the notifications list. This is pretty disruptive to me.

But if you're done with that notification, why would you want to stick around? You wouldn't yet be done by definition.

I guess that's just not how I think or how I'm used to using an inbox. I click done to get the banner out of my face. The important part was the notification not the requirement to buy into their task management system.

Yeah that banner is annoying and takes away lots of valuable space.
