Title:
  Application entry in Messaging Menu always starts the application

Status in The Messaging Menu:
  New
Status in smuxi package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  When I ported Smuxi to the new libmessaging-menu library I noticed
  that the Messaging Menu is always executing/invoking the application.
  This is all good and nice as long as the application supports single-
  instance, when not it's a real pain though. Wouldn't it be sufficient
  to use the source-activiated event for the application itself, or by
  adding a new dedicated app-activated event. This way the application
  wouldn't need to deal with IPC at all and just work, I think this
  would be in the spirit of the new library to make it easy for
  application developers.

  Thanks for considering! Besides this, the new lib works great!
