Correct.

The performance gains are not for non-ported applications. They are only valid 
for applications using D-Bus bindings that get ported.

Porting the main bindings is the first step. Note that there are a number of 
applications -- especially system daemons -- that are not using a binding but 
instead are using libdbus-1 directly. Those need to be individually ported.

As the QtDBus upstream maintainer, I can tell you it's not a task we were 
looking forward to. It's not going to be easy for us, especially considering 
the only person who does any work on that module is me.
