I am confident that video upload to Youtube and Vimeo will be added this
cycle as both services have nice APIs (and bindings).

Good to hear!

I agree. Such an interface could be easily implemented atop the Conduit
DBus interface but I would prefer the consensus of what constitutes
'core' sync come in part from the GNOME community. 

For example one consequence of getting into GNOME would be that the
means for managing Tomboy sync would move from the Conduit GUI into
Tomboy [1].

[1] Well that's what I would like. I hope the Tomboy devs agree!
