Not exactly: on iOS for example, you can turn on something called "focus
mode", which will mute/hide all notifications. Apps can break through focus
mode for individual notifications if needed.
For me, XEP-0224 is the exact right XEP to let the sender break through
focus mode. Using it for mentions instead would mean I'd have to reinvent
XEP-0224 for the focus mode usecase. I'd rather like a new XEP for the
various types of mentions rather than having to reinvent XEP-0224 to be
able to implement the focus mode usecase.
For 1:1 this is perfectly sensible, but do you want people in a MUC to be
able to break through focus mode?
Yes, depending on the MUC (private group, configurable in my client,
differentiating between participants of that MUC).
So the XEP should at least allow this and leave it up to the client
implementation on what configuration level gets exposed to the user.
