Make error messages less disruptive

The banners that pop up that something has been saved or failed to be saved has timers that are way to long and the banners are in a very inconvenient location on the screen causing me to have stop the train of thought or action I was doing to "x" it of the screen so that I can move on. In the contact logs, it tells me to fill out an area that I am trying to fill out when it gives me the message. Then I have to stop what I am doing to "x" the message out of the way so that I can continue. Sometimes it will not "x" out and I end up completely "x"ing out of the screen and starting over. Can't you put the missing content messages towards the end when I try to save instead of while I am typing. It is the same with a 505 service note. It is so annoying and frustrating.
