Hi Neil,
Thanks for posting these!

Probably best to use "name" instead of connector, since it doesn't necessarily
_have_ to be a connector name. So, cec_notifier_get_by_name(dev, name)

You might also want to cover the case where you have multiple named notifiers
for the same device. It looks like it just grabs the first one?
