Is there any way to send "data messages", i.e. messages that don't trigger a notification, using Firebase on Flutter Web?
The reason I want to do this is that I am developing an app intended to be run in a custom desktop program with a Chromium-based browser which doesn't seem to have any way of granting notification permission.
It seems a bit counter intuitive that the notification permission would be needed to deliver data/background messages that don't trigger any notification. But if I try to run the app without requesting permission, I get
[firebase_messaging/permission-blocked] Messaging: The notification permission was not granted and blocked instead. .

when trying to get the FCM token
fcmID = await fCM.getToken();
Since the custom browser desktop program doesn't support requesting the notification permission from the user (even though it is using a modern Chromium component), I get the same error even if trying to request permission.
