(Get the code!)
I also don't think this is a good approach, for one the notifications often fire very soon - it might not even be possible to get mimetype of the file (not to mention .part-type files), and I'm not so sure the API enables you to determine that an operation is a move/copy. You'd probably just see a new file somewhere and a while later another file disappearing.
IMO it'd be better to wait for this year's TaskView API to mature, and we'd just write a data provider which will use its DBus service.
