i'm going to concentrate on the GlobalContext class mostly here. as it stands, GlobalContext seems like an activity manager; where "activity" is defined as "a named object stored in nepomuk". is that correct?

if so, then it's not really a global Context object. perhaps an ActivityManager? or a ContextManager? it doesn't include location information either, which Plasma::Context should at some point here.

GlobalContext public API may only need to be: a signal noting when the active global context changes; a way to list available activities (mostly because the method in Plasma::Context isn't static) ...

    kDebug? :)



/trunk/KDE/kdelibs/plasma/context.h
<http://reviewboard.kde.org/r/1699/#comment1738>

    ensureActivityExists?
    
    or maybe ensureActivity and createActivity could be merged? maybe something like:
    
    activityId(const QString &name, const QString &expectedId = QString());?
    
    or perhaps these can remain as they are but be private API? it should only really be needed by Context when setting the current activity in that Context?

<http://reviewboard.kde.org/r/1699/#comment1753>

    or perhaps:
    
    forActivity(id)->setActiveContext(true);?

    is this equivalent to currentContext()->name()?



/trunk/KDE/kdelibs/plasma/context.h
<http://reviewboard.kde.org/r/1699/#comment1740>

    i'd personally expect these as static methods in Plasma::Context, e.g.:
    
    Plasma::Context::contextForActivity(QString)
    Plasma::Context::activeContext()



/trunk/KDE/kdelibs/plasma/context.h
<http://reviewboard.kde.org/r/1699/#comment1749>

    is this equivalent to:
    
    forActivity(id)->name(); ?



/trunk/KDE/kdelibs/plasma/context.h
<http://reviewboard.kde.org/r/1699/#comment1747>

    maybe this could emit a Context object instead of a QString id?



/trunk/KDE/kdelibs/plasma/context.h
<http://reviewboard.kde.org/r/1699/#comment1741>

    wouldn't this create an activity and associate it with this Context?



/trunk/KDE/kdelibs/plasma/context.h
<http://reviewboard.kde.org/r/1699/#comment1742>

    setCurrentActivityId()? and then there could be a corresponding activityId().
