passing NULL with Glib interface

[John (J5) Palmieri]

Hey, this is not a bug.  You can't send NULL.  This is because D-Bus is
language neutral and NULL means different things.  For instance NULL in
C can only be applied to pointers where as the None in Python is just
another type that can be assigned to any variable.
