(Disclaimer: I work on these features on Chrome)

We're exploring that. It's not 100% clear either way, but I personally hope we can do it.

Feel free to star this issue if you want to keep track of progress: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=516147

I built Electron's native Windows notification integration and I'd be suuuuper happy about seeing it become a standard Chromium feature.

According to that thread the reason for not doing Win10 notifications is: It would create a weird state where Chrome behaves differently on Win 10 than on Win 7/8 and developers of extensions/websites wouldn't know what they design for.

Which is pretty weak, IMO. They argue that Win10 adoption is less. But I think the people using Win10 are already more than those using any form of OSX, ever.
