Just to clarify, events aren't really about applications, the only application information we store is the name of their ".desktop" file. What we need is: document URI, document mimetype, document manifestation (local file/website/etc), document interpretation (document/image/video/source code/etc), title -can't be provided by GIO-, event interpretation (most likely VISIT_EVENT, ei. a file being opened/visited), event manifestation (happening because of a user action/automatically -eg. music player changing to next song-/etc), etc. In any case, your idea looks really useful (even though we'll still need data providers for many applications as they can provide much more details by themselves), please go on with it :).
