The MeMenu could be redesigned to support mainly automatic states by the
following pattern:
* "active" - HID activity
* # "idle" - no HID activity, no change of state
* "Conceal Presence" [ ] - before and after is in sleep or suspend
* [ON|OFF] "Do not disturb"

For user testing this menu, i would like to see "unlink IM Presence"
somewhere in gconf..
