Yeah. We had a discussion about this at the hackfest and everyone agreed
that origin must be a property of the subject(s). So the meaning og
origin is "where does the subject come from?". For files it is the
parent folder. For websites it is the root URL (eg. http://youtube.com).

We do need to figure out however if we want trailing slashes on origin
or not... That's another issue however.

Bug description:
Both http://live.gnome.org/GnomeZeitgeist/DatabaseDesign and our current implementation have "origin" as a property of items, but this makes no sense, as the origin can be different for every event and should as such be a property of it. (Further, to improve disk space usage we should save the actual value of it in the "uri" table).

I'm filling this bug so that we don't remember to fix it, but please let's ignore it until we get the basic event/item separation stuff merged - most important stuff first.
