Yeah, it's an issue when apps are allowed to talk to any name owned by the
shell. It's not something apps are expected to do (including for search
providers, which actually work the other way round, i.e. the shell talking to
the app)), in particular when sandboxed.

Still, we may want to consider turning it off by default ('development-tools'
in org.gnome.shell) ...
