With patch for "ListActivatableServices" I attached here before you can
check which services are already activated and which are activatable on
demand do you can choose which one is returned from
ListActivatableServices and remove returned from ListServices thern
you'll get not yet activated services from all available, or something
like this.
Good Luck.
