Firefox desktop notifications that don't disappear

Enabling push notifications in Firefox for websites (such as gmail) does give notifications on my desktop (ubuntu). However, any notification seems to disappear very quickly, usually 2 sec but maybe up to a minute depending on if I move my mouse over the notification or if I refresh the notification tray.

I would like to have these notifications stay displayed in my desktop notification until I intentionally dismiss them.

My desktop settings for notifications from Firefox are the same as those for applications which do have notifications which last until I dismiss them. I am guessing it is setting in Firefox that I need to change. Is this setting something I can change?

I'm interested in seeing what the notifications look like. Screenshot please.
