This is not an issue, 
In the libnotify server you can keep the old depracated dbus interface for 
compatibility,  and add the new one.

And the new libnotify would have a dependence on the new server. So you do not 
have new application working with the old server.

I do not get it.  This is exactly what we are trying to discuss.  we're not 
trying to avoid anything.
