So, if I may humbly misquote the content of your post: we are on this day, presented with a rare and wonderful opportunity to introduce a whole new class of kernel bugs, which so far have been mainly relegated to userspace and mainly manifested by the likes of Gnome and KDE apps. By no means should we miss this wonderful opportunity to grab this shiny new tool by the trigger and blow our collective legs off.

Of course, we could always consider waiting for DBus to stop causing user space issues before welcoming it into kernel with open arms, hearts and minds. I'm trying to avoid using the word "gaping" here...

I have no idea what you're trying to say.
