Let me add a comment here on why we can't just emit a signal to everyone...
In the future it is not impossible that many apps are connected to Zeitgeist. Indeed if we have a hook in Gtk+ or Glib then *all* apps are connected to us. Thus we'd send a signal to all desktop processes - waking them up - meaning bad power and CPU usage. Especially on embedded devices and netbooks this could be notable.
