This plugin is loaded in EventProcessor's constructor, which is called from 
ActivityManager's constructor, so we have a chicken and egg problem here that 
may be the cause of the delay. This plugin tries to contact ActivityManager 
through dbus to list the current list of activities but ActivityManager loads 
the list from disk after allocating the EventProcessor object. You can try 
adding a slot GlobalShortcutsPlugin::realInit() containg everything that is in 
GlobalShortcutsPlugin::init() today and call it from 
GlobalShortcutsPlugin::init() using "QTimer::singleShot(1000, this, 
SLOT(realInit()));". That will make sure ActivityManager is already allocated 
when the plugin is initialized.
