in Options|Permissions|Notifications|Settings, Fx supposedly lists websites that have asked permission to send me notifications. Nothing is listed there, although I continue to receive many pop-up notifications daily from websites I visit. I also have blocked all notifications, in the same Options section. Perhaps only some of such website pop-ups are considered notifications subject to my preference. If so, how can I distinguish those that are covered from those that are not?
A secondary issue concerns Fx's warning, "Blocking notifications may break some website features." If a website does block such features, is there any way for me to know (so I could change my permission for that website)?

Re: Blocking notifications
Most sites use push notifications to pop up the notification requests. Firefox can block those.
A number of sites have moved to an HTML5 overlay to request notifications and because that kind of overlay can be used for lots of other things, Firefox can’t block those.
