[Bug 462894] Re: add a registry for Dataprovider

 

Afaik the idea was that there should be a central place where any logger
can be disabled. In any case, we still need this for stuff in the
datahub (which may do logging from online services in the future, etc).

Bug description:
It should be possible to
 * enable/disable some dataprovider (esp. useful for testing while developing and debugging)
 * define which dataprovider sends events for which application (right now it is possible to have multiple DP per application, eg. are shipping a firefox logger and on the other hand there is an external FF extension which sends events. This can end in a race between both logger, and logging the same data twice is also not useful)

The preferences should be stored in a user readable format (ini like text file) but also be accessible over DBus.
Maybe this fits into a more general Configuration Interface I started some time ago.
