Bug description:
  Autopilot really needs a way to programmatically ask the unity8 shell
  to:

   * Tell it which applications are running.
   * Tell it which application (or applications, in the case of a side-stage being present) is focussed.
   * Close a specified application.

  
  Optionally, perhaps also a way to:

   * Switch focus to a specified application.

  
  This has been discussed previously, and I believe there's a simple dbus specification lying around somewhere. This bug is to track the progress of that feature.
