Other plugins usually use a char * property to indicate the device.

Yeah, the timeout property would only be for "how long to wait until the
application is told that data is not flowing", which would apply to tuning as
well as signal loss.  We could have separate timeouts for both of those, but I
don't think there's much value in having two.

I think this is the only thing that really needs to be fixed before merging
your branch into bad.  (Which I suppose we could talk about on that bug
report.)

Style preference.  I didn't mean for you to have to fix all these things
yourself before moving to -good, but a checklist of things that need to be
done.  This is something that I would do.
