I guess BlacklistTemplateIdentifier identifies a blacklist template instead
of where it came from. I don't agree on this, ANy blacklist template is a
event at the end of the day, so will have ID set which can be used as
identifier.

Tracing which applications set the application makes sense. We don't need
"application://firefox.desktop/porn" Why? Identifiers should be atomic if
possible.

Title:
  Blacklist API sucks

Bug description:
  Guys, GetBlacklist and SetBlacklist (without any signals) for an asynchrounous-by-nature API? Come on!

How about changing it to Get, Add, Remove and a changed signal? That way it'd be actually usable...
