boh, only way i see is having an activity that has just and empty and black 
containment, that pretends to be "no activity" and would be treated 
differently

no idea how to make the logic not overcomplicated and error prone, i really 
feel that as soon as there would be the concept of "no running activity" 
and/or all activities are encrypted the logic would *have* to become horribly 
more complex
