Ah ! how could I have overlooked that :)
As far as I'm concerned, that's all I need, since I run my KDE sessions from a console with some environment already set 
up (e.g. for KDEHOME), so adding the dbus env var in the environment is no problem. 

Still, Ralph is talking about another use case, where we don't have a console-provided environment.

It does. That's why the idea of having multiple dbus-daemons running and apps talking to the right one is tempting. 
However, I don't think ensuring the apps talk to the right daemon is really the responsibility of dbus, so I think I 
agree with you below.

Me too. That's something I'd rather fix in kde-win if really needed.
