Public bug reported:

I'm trying to work on a simple upstart job that fires whenever a
specific signal is sent. I got to a point where that feature works but
ONLY when I also keep 'sudo upstart-dbus-bridge --always' stared in a
separate terminal.

Reading the documentation lead me to believe that the feature where
upstart discovers which jobs use 'start on dbus' to communicate that to
upstart-dbus-monitor is broken.

I have created a simple job as a proof-of-concept, it should, in theory,
capture all dbus signals and log them to /var/log/upstart/$jobname.log

start on dbus 
console log
task
exec /usr/bin/env

Is the documentation confusing or is upstart just broken here?
