With the exporting of the dataproviders, it is not our job anymore since applications can deactivate their "informer".

Bug description:
DataProvider can be activated via a config file or dbus. Some DataProvider are using gio.FileMonitor to watch logfiles etc. for changes. This is currently done all the time, no matter if a DP is enabled or not.
The DP which is using a file monitor should only watch files if he is activated.
