I agree that this is desirable, but fear that it may be too late in the
Natty cycle to add.

The problem is that it is slightly non-trivial to apply the "correct"
solution; which would be to have Zeitgeist log the downloads from all
apps (Firefox and Empathy probably the most prominent). This way we'd
have automatic integration with the timeline ranking from our Zeitgeist
queries.

If we manually "grep" the Downloads dir we'd have to merge-sort them
with the results from Zeitgeist in order to have them integrated into
the timeline results.

Alternatively we integrate the hits from Downloads in the Top Results
group or add a Downloads group to the result set (as we have on the home
screen). I don't particularly like any of these two ideas though.
