related to this: we have implemented this in libkactivities as 
ResourceInstance which allows an application to publish what it is viewing. as 
it is published rather than queried this also lets one feed it into events 
recorders for logging, heuristics, etc. it uses DBus to do all the 
communication.

it would be fantastic if there was one generally agreed upon way of doing this 
so we don't end up with application chaos -> some doing it one way, others 
another. as we already have a working implementation, ResourceInstance could 
provide a starting point for a shared standard mechanism for applications to 
publish their "what is open" information.

if you're interested, i'd be happy to provide more details as to how it is 
currently implemented (in terms of DBus interfaces)
