One worry I have reading this thread is that I have a lot of computers
where this is the case; most of the time no-one is logged in and no-one
_ever_ logs in graphically, it's just not installed. Is there anything
which I currently do on my servers which you are planning to handle with
session-based programs?

On another point, I think it's been said already, but I'll add my voice
to the choir; upstart probably doesn't want dbus support for it's
initial IPC (although possibly peer-to-peer dbus), but I think that as
soon as the system bus is started upstart should connect to it (possibly
via another process which relays messages; this is an implementation
detail). From that point on the recommended way of communicating with
upstart would be via the bus. This may already be the plan.
