How will the game detect if you're "not doing anything"?

How will the game detect if you're "not doing anything"?

For instance, no battles, no occupied provinces nor contribution to sieges when it comes to calculate warscore.

CK2 had a contribution system, such a thing could make it to EU4... though, I would prefer it on a more reward based system, so those who contributed a lot are recognised by the AI, and can get favourable dealings.

There is also one in EU3 too, very basic. You had your own independent war-score to the Leader (who had everyones plus their own).
