so is there a standard that says that every desktop must use dbus now? If so I missed the memo. I don't have much of a problem with any individual desktop deciding they want to use dbus (gnome, kde, etc) as I still have the choice to use other systems (lxde, windowmaker, etc) but to make fundamantal control of the hardware require dbus seems like a signficant step.
