Description

With the Brave new feature to prevent cookie windows, alertify (notifier) no longer works. To test I invite you to follow the procedure described at https://brave.com/privacy-updates/21-blocking-cookie-notices/.

By modifying the defined classes it is possible to circumvent this, except that alertify does not take into account the modification of the notify classes defined in configuration. I looked a bit in the code and indeed it uses the classes defined in the defaults object.

Research direction

Start with the notifier configuration and the defaults object that defines its notify classes. Reproduce the Brave cookie-window blocking procedure, then trace whether configured notify classes are applied instead of the defaults; done means Alertify notifications work with the customized classes in Brave.
