Good evening,
I ain't no mind reader, but he's already of the idea that, sooner or later, kdbus will be merged to stop
people crying "But moooom!", it seems to me. IMHO
The struggle here is in the stupid idea the GNU/Fedora cabal is propugnating: any time they send the request,
according to most of reviewers, the code is unsafe, low-quality
(compared to what Linus demands for what is likely to be merged in mainline) and has poor performance bonuses compared to userspace dbus,
hardly any advantage at all otherwise.

Something is wrong. I don't wanna compile 20 KB of Go code to list files.
