I thought the rationale was simply that the default DBus connections
to the system/session buses are tied to the lifecycle of the operating
system and desktop login session, respectively.  So unless your
application is very special in some way, it should exit when the
session or system bus gets restarted.

And no OS vendor should be restarting the system or session bus on upgrades.
