I understand putting the 2 was needed, but if we add it once, we should 
add it everywhere. It's annoyingly inconsistent.

Why did you choose 2 then? Why not 4? Or A? You chose 2 because it's the 
best explanation, as it is, although mostly unrelated, e_dbus v2. And if 
that's good enough there, it's good enough everywhere.

In conclusion, I see no harm in using edbus2 all around the place.
