Stopping the d-bus daemon when the last connection closes

Hi,
I wrote a message to the mailing list a few weeks ago about getting the
dbus-daemon to exit when the last client disconnects, but I didn't get
an answer. Not sure if the tone in my message was impolite, or the
request stupid, but I thought I'd try again.
I have an MS-Windows application (originally born on Linux) that uses
D-bus for communication between processes. On Windows the default
autolaunch: address causes a dbus-daemon to be created that is shared
with the desktop-session. This means a useful bus pops into existence
the first time you need it - very nice. Now, when my application is
closed by the user all my processes go away, but the dbus-daemon.exe
lingers. I'd like it to go away when the last client disconnects or
briefly after.
Is there a way to get that behaviour now? I imagine this would be useful
on Windows in general.
Best regards,
Thomas
