Yes, but I don't want D-Bus to know my password. Essentially you are
saying this is a more complicated way to start D-Bus in your bash
profile, with more external dependencies and code that runs with
unrequired priveledges, exposing secret information to D-Bus, and no
actual benefits at all? Why are you doing this?
