[python] Multiple interfaces for one method / Register method with other name

Hi all,

I have a question concerning the python-dbus bindings:
Say I have a class A (=> a dbus-object A) which has several methods. And
for some reasons (here: allow API versioning) I want that each method is
defined in different interfaces.
How could I do this?

I would see three ways, but I think none of them is working:

class A (dbus.service.Object):

	# the first method: multiple decorators
	@dbus.service.method ("Interface1", ...)
	@dbus.service.method ("Interface2", ...)
	def foo1 (...):
		pass

	# the second method: multiple interfaces in one decorator - as list
	@dbus.service.method (["Interface1", "Interface2"], ...)
	def foo2 (...):
		pass

	# the third way: register a function under a different name
	# this would also allow to have one function with different signatures
in different interfaces
	@dbus.service.method("Interface1", ...)
	def foo3 (...):
		pass

	@dbus.service.method("Interface2", as_method="foo3", ...)
	def foo3_int2 (...):
		pass


I think the second way would be really nice to have, to ease something
like this.
And additional the third one, with passing a different name under which
the function should be visible in DBus. I think there are some usecases
where this would come in really handy :)

Regards,
René
