The Status and Audio listeners are included with the  
Horde_Notification library. Horde_Core extends those with the  
DynamicStatus, SmartmobileStatus, and Webnotification listeners.

You can add arbitrary "types", but the following are supported out of  
the box by Horde_Core, additionally to those that you mentioned:  
horde.alarm, horde.success

There are decorator classes in both Horde_Notification and Horde_Core  
to log events sent with the notification API.

Not out of the box.
