Part of dbus support will have to be semantic bridging too. Either in
the VOS site extension or in a seperate native_dbus-vos_dbus daemon;
doing it in the site extension probably makes the most sense I think.
So adding and removing services looks like adding/removing vobjects;
changing the prenesce status of your avatar sends a dbus event to
synchronize with other IM systems, etc.
