Comment 4 for bug 584439

If trip stats service stops using GPS, the trip while the user is on the
phone, or uses any application other than OSN, this section of the trip is
ignored. I'd prefer to notify the user that the service is still running by
posting a message to the status bar. But this takes more work, right?
