Oh could be yeah...
<tests>
... and yes, this seems to be the case.

However, there are some discrepancies. It requires the .service suffix
to work properly, unlike native services which do not.

When the .service suffix is missed, you get the same errors as pasted
earlier:


enable gives "Failed to issue method call: No such file or directory"
  and
disable gives no output at all and silently fails.


Anyway, thanks for the pointer, it's certainly better even if it needs
polishing still!

Cheers
