<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">Otherwise it sounds like any case of "talking to an application that is starting" will create races (am I making the call before or after the object has been published?). Not just KUniqueApplication, but any other dbus call to a starting app, including the dbus activation case.</p></pre>

<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">And anyhow even if you disagree with his patches to Qt dbus, there's no reason to discard this patch, saves us a dbus call on the startup case, makes the app start marginally faster i guess :D</p></pre>
