Ah, now I get it. You want to load a Zeitgeist XPCOM component, written
in Python, into Firefox, and then from that component import DBus (or
simply zeitgeist.client.ZeitgeistClient). This component is then used to
implement the extension in Javscript, or am I out on a limb?

Due to a missing pyxpcom package in ubuntu karmic the firefox extension was hacked by files in the dbus communication process. this is VERY inefficient. We should use XPCOM instead.
