that would be fine; for plasma i was just going to wrap it behind 
Plasma::Context as i don't have the time to do a full on wrapper lib for 
geoclue.

fortunately it looks pretty easy: there are really only three data outputs 
from geoclue right now, and we probably don't care much about one of them for 
Context (velocity).

in plasma we will want the ability to get both the "raw" information (city, 
country, long/lat) as well as some useful mappings such as timezone (should 
hopefully be able to map locality -> timezone?) ...
