Idea is good!

I'd prefer if we could handle this similar to how we handle the status
text string that can be sent via the socket.

i.e. introduce a new dbus property "StatusErrNo", place it next to the
existing "StatusText", and call the field in the C "Service" struct
"status_errno", and put it next to "status_text", and so on...

Thanks!
