Thanks.

By the way, it is not clear to me why it is a good idea to throw UnsupportedOperationException
based on the possibility that the badge *might not* be displayed on some OS releases. The obvious
downside is that the badge will then not be displayed even on releases where it would work.

Does the application need to know that the badge was not displayed? I don’t see why, but
it does, then are you prepared to throw an exception when the request was not permitted because
the user did not grant permission?
