<i>Mark all as read</i> doesn't always work
In the last few days I've gotten a few notifications.  These have been about new comments to one of my posts, or a new comment in a comment thread I participated in.

I clicked on the typewriter ribbon cartridge icon to see what my notification was, recognized it as being in a question I was going to visit anyway, so clicked on <i>Mark all as read</i>.  I then hit ESC to clear the notification popup, which didn't work, so clicked on the top bar of whatever page I was on.

The notification came back later.  I don't remember if it was when I visited the page the new material was on, or some time before that.  In any case, I again had to click on the typewriter ribbon, and <i>Mark all as read</i>.  This time it took.

This process happened at least twice in the last couple of days.
