Expect the tag cloud widget in tracker trunk in a few days.
The application that I described there is slowly emerging, I believe
that it now makes sense to register a new GNOME module soon; again it's
a matter of days. When this happens I guess I'll announce it on the
gnome-announce list, as suggested by the new GNOME svn repo policy.
A bare-bones glimpse of it can be seen in my recent blog post [1].
A GObject-based client library is necessary, and I think that it would
make a lot of sense for it to be in essence an interface to XESAM.
