A better solution would be for the kernel to log inotify events to disk in a manner that survives reboots. When Beagle starts it would locate its last checkpoint and then process the logged inotify events from that time forward. This inotify logging needs to be bullet proof or it will mess up your Beagle index.
Perhaps something similar to FsEvents on OSX which is a daemon that interfaces with the OS to record this very information. It only works across clean reboots, but it does work there. Do a bad shutdown, and your next backup or index take a long time to go scan everything. It would also be wonderful to have this for backups as well.
