/dev/input/xxx. Actually, I don't think polkit is involved for accessing
those: it is the whole purpose of dbus to provide access to hardware devices
for normal users.

That's my biggest problem wit dbus.  According the the website:

"D-Bus is a message bus system, a simple way for applications to talk to one another. In addition to interprocess communication, D-Bus helps coordinate process lifecycle; it makes it simple and reliable to code a "single instance" application or daemon, and to launch applications and daemons on demand when their services are needed."

But why do they need to combine interprocess communication with "launch applications and daemons"? IMO, this is the systemd disease. It just makes things more complicated.
