This is definitely interesting. One potential issue though (and I can be
mistaken), is that it seems that this is more like a bunch of small
patches in many different modules. So be careful to explain the benefits
of all this when writing your application. And maybe find more related
things to do based on geoclue: the task as described seems to be a bit
too small.

Cheers,

Vincent
