Yes, I think so. In any case the names aren't in the wire protocol,
they are purely "advisory" or for code generation.

iirc they are all "in" though really in/out have no meaning for a
signal since there's only one message that has all the args in it.
While method calls have two messages, the call and the reply, call has
in args, reply has out args.
