Ideas for new improvements in specto 0.3

[GoogleCodeExporter]

This is a list with all the improvements i want to add to the new specto
release:

- cleanup the type specific watch files (make them as simple as possible so
adding a new watch type will go much faster).

- move the add/edit gui-code to the specific watch files or create the gui
dynamically.

- use a plugin-system so adding a new watch type will go much faster

- do a HUGE cleanup and remove all unnecessary code!!!

- use modules

- add a msn-watch so you will be notified when a user is online (*).

- provide more information when a watch is updated (sender, difference, ...)

So give me your comments, new ideas, ... so this new release will become
the best we ever had! ;)

*: when the msn-watch updates, it will logon "invisible" to the msn-network
, check your friendslist to see if the user is online, if he is online you
will recieve and update.

I'm all for the cleanup! :)

The plugin system and dynamic GUI sounds like a good idea too.

The "msn watch": hey, you actually just reminded me of my initial idea of why 
an IM
watch would be useful! (I forgot what was my idea as time passed). The thing 
is, I
don't want this to be limited to MSN, so it should work with
http://telepathy.freedesktop.org to support any protocol, especially Jabber. 
This
would add a dependency though. Anyway, Telepathy is the way to go.

This IM thing should be a separate bug report (enhancement request).

These changes are (almost) finished in my branch and there is another issue for 
the
IM-watch so i can close this issue
