Yep.

As the context recognition will be a plugin there will likely be multiple 
concurrent instances running at the same time. As this will likely be a 
problem anyway (multiple accesses to the same webcam are afaik not possible), 
we'd need some kind of library behind the actual plugin.

This library could also include a general webcam KCM (for all of Simon). IMHO 
that's the right place to adjust brightness and provide an accuracy threshold.

What do you think?

Context for scenario activation / deactivation is a property of the affected 
scenario. So you don't have any control about that (and don't need to worry 
about it).

The context plugins only job is to reply true / false - everything else is 
handeled by the general context architecture.

Best regards,
Peter
