This confirms one of my suspicions about dbus. I was looking to write a DOS
attack against it since it has 0777 permissions for its listening socket. I
suspect eggcups is doing too much broadcasting of its status, but I'm not 100%.
This does illustrate that a DOS is feasible if you have a local account.
