Even worse, it seems a malicious app could ship a broken service file and with that corrupt the database.

However, if a .service file changes its <provider> element, libaccounts-glib does not detect the change and still keeps the outdated information in its DB. One possible solution for this is to add a function like ag_account_manager_rebuild_cache() which re-reads all the .service files, and invoke this function from our "account-service" hook program.
