There is already a project aiming at just this,
http://eventuality.freedesktop.org , using DBUS. As a side note, what's
proposed in article, using magic parameters, is pretty naive approach,
having number of weak points, as knipknap already pointed out in
comments on gnomedesktop.org (http://www.gnomedesktop.org/article.php?
