I'm not sure I understand what the glib bindings do?  How do you use the
name and not have a problem when it disconnects?  Are you saying we can
use the bus name and not the unique name?  There was an issue at some
point where we would not get signals if we used the bus name.  Perhaps
that was a bug that was fixed?
