IMO this blends in just fine. Xavier's work focuses on the
tracker-extract side, prioritizing certain files over others, but only
after miner-fs has gotten the rdf:types that apply.

With this branch, removable volumes and DBus IndexFile requests are
crawled before any file from config, together with rdf:type
prioritization this would mean the favoured rdf:types in removable
volumes would be indexed the fastest, and at least basic information
would be committed for any other file if the volume gets unmounted
early.

But I guess it still could be great Xavier's word here, I don't want to
stomp on his work again :P.

Cheers,
  Carlos
