We always need a URI, so that the application has something meaningful
to show. Tracker UUIDs could be used to complement the subject, but
not supersed the URI.

I've never said it should be "at the event time". The origin would be
whatever page the file was downloaded from; the Firefox extension can
know this. Time relationships is something Zeitgeist already can
provide without origin, but has the problem you've just pointed out.

Tracking recent directories

Bug description:
This is a feature request, please reassign wherever you see fit :-)

Currently recent files are tracked as items. Recent directories would also be useful to track.

E.g. I edit files in geany, compile code that produce an executable that need to be debugged in Nemiver. When Nemiver is opened it would save a lot of time if the directory was available under a "recent directories" heading somewhere.

Thanks,
Conrad
