Question on C code - any programmatic way of setting DBUS_BUS_SESSION address?

Hi,

While in dbus_bus.c (v1.1.20) I could see method like internal_bus_get,
which has this code line:

address = bus_connection_addresses[address_type];

I don't see any way of setting that address programmatically and without
touching environment settings. Is it possible?

Why not have extended version of dbus_bus_get:

Instead of:

dbus_bus_get (DBusBusType  type,
	      DBusError   *error)

Have this:

dbus_bus_get (DBusBusType  type,
	      const char* address,
	      DBusError   *error)

And then reflect to that in internal_bus_get accordingly?

What do you think?

Thank you,
Andrejus
