I will stand in defense of dbus. It and its predecessors have helped to 
automate my email handling to a minimum amount of work for me. With its 
help, an incoming msg, being written to /var/mail/$usr by procmail, is 
available for me to take action in kmail appriximately .25 seconds after 
procmail has closed the file. Losing dbus would multiply the needed  
mouse clicks by 2 or more, and add me as a variable delay to its 
visibility in kmail.
