I think that the stuff returned from a "post notification" is a simple id
number that you can later pass to "remove notification", just as the "id
number" you get when opening for access a file:

set x to post notification "kapullo" with bouncing in dock
--> <<data NMrc00000000>>
delay 1
remove notification x

--> is similar to:
set x to (open for access file "path:to:whatever")
--> which returns an small integer
close access x

So, the osaxen knows what notification remove if you posted several ones.
