I’d say that (2) is probably better, because the application knows best when interesting things happen (which will reduce resource consumption, as you say). In addition, some applications might not (currently) expose all of their interesting data in a way that is easily monitored externally, and (2) would get around that.

There is no reason that (2) means you can’t have a central manager. You could have Zeitgeist-enabled applications check with the central manager whether they should be logging information when they start up, and use something like a dbus signal to notify the applications when their logging settings change at run time.

That’s the issue I would also think about.

So you have an instant copy of your history. Not that great.

Can’t the Epiphany history file not just include timestamps, so you can easily search it on the fly?
