That's what I thought. AFAIK, GObject should detect any
"NAUTILUS_TYPE_MENU_PROVIDER" as eligible to send that signal, but I
suspect that however this detection works does not span across the
Python/C bridge.

The nautilus-python bindings are maintained by Adam Plumb, the other
maintainer of RabbitVCS. He picked it up because it was unmaintained
for so long, so I'm not sure how well he knows the ins and outs of it
right now.

My guess is that we need to expose the C function
"nautilus_menu_provider_emit_items_updated_signal" to the Python
bindings via the "nautilus.defs" file, but I'll take it up with him
and follow up here if we have any luck.

Thanks for going through it anyway :)
