 Although this is way too late to think about for 1.9, is it worth
 disallowing multiple core and email notifications for the same item? For
 example, Member X might decide to continually at-mention Member G in a
 blog post which would result in multiple core and email notifications
 being sent to Member G.

 Perhaps a check to see if a read or unread notification already exists
 would stop this from happening?

 {{{
 $notifications = BP_Notifications_Notification::get( array(
     'user_id' => $mentioned_user_id,
     'item_id' => $item_id,
     'secondary_item_id' => $mentioner_id,
     'component_action'  => 'new_at_mention'
 ) );

 if ( ! $notifications ) {
     // send an email or add a core notification
 }
 }}}
