Implement a hiding mechanism for sticky banners #3064
Description
Activity
just move it to a non-sticky state (avoiding a re-flow of the content on "close").
I would think the latter—it would be simpler to implement, keep it for users to reference if desired, and be consistent with how all other admonitions work.
Perhaps a more interesting question is whether we should save the user clicking off of it to local storage, and if so for how long (session, time limit, or permanent). Users reloading the page for some reason or re-navigating to it within a short time window are likely to be annoyed by having to re-close the banner they've already seen, but may not remember if they visited it a while ago, so perhaps a happy medium would be something like saving it for the length of the user's session (though not sure how that is defined in a mobile browser) and/or ≈29 days. What do others think?

The specific UX might differ from the initial discussion referenced above, based on whether we want to completely hide the banner or just move it to a non-sticky state (avoiding a re-flow of the content on "close").
