Screenshot of notifications

AnomieBOT mentioned my username multiple names in this edit: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Possibly_unfree_files/2013_August_7&oldid=570775621&diff=prev and https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Possibly_unfree_files/2013_August_6&oldid=570775610&diff=prev

I assume that I would receive one notification for that edit. Instead I received a notification for each mention of my username. (see screenshot)

This looks like a feature than a bug.  The primary action of 'mention' notification is a link to each section.  Triggering only one would miss the others.  However, Triggering more than one notification in one edit is indeed quite distracting.  I will talk to Fabrice about a better approach on this when he returns from vacation
