Is it not possible to use IPC to have the helper message the client app so that the client does the actual posting?

Since the helper app is a menu-less LSUIElement, the app is invisible to users. But when it posts a user notification, it posts the notification under the name of the helper app. We'd like it to post the user notification under the name of the app that the helper app helps, and use a different icon if at all possible. How do I do that? It should be possible because I suspect CalendarAgent is spoofing Calendar.app…
