The best way I can come up is this
AllApps = All apps which have a desktop file
AppsWithNoDisplayTrue = Apps which have desktop file containing the key
NoDisplay=true
AppsAlreadyLogged = Apps which have already logged atleast one event
AppsInDsRegistry = Apps which have their actor set in atleast one of the
templates of DataSourceRegistry
The correct app list should be
(AllApps minus AppsWithNoDisplayTrue) union AppsAlreadyLogged union
AppsInDsRegistry
This is closest to solution but would be good to have a CheckBox
[ ] Show all applications which will show items in AllApps

Title:
Only show apps that log to zg in Exclude Application chooser
Status in Privacy Manager for Zeitgeist:
New
Status in “activity-log-manager” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
The Exclude Application chooser appears to include all .desktop's including
many that don't make sense like:
- Python v2.7
- Network Connections
- Compiz
- GNOME Shell Classic
- View File
- Window Manager
I think it would be better for users to only have relevant apps show
up in this list.
GNOME 3.8 has a new Notifications panel in Settings that allows users
to customize GNOME Shell notifications. Apps show up there either
because they've explicitly opted in (see
https://wiki.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/NotificationSource ) or because
they've shown at least one notification.
Zeitgeist could do something similar. Show apps in this list once one
event has been logged from the app. And also make a way for app
developers to signal to zg that they log to zg even before they have
logged one event.
