I suggest to add @version="..." to the @name="..." attribute of <interface>. 
This way, we can generate code from newer (local) interface files and still 
have static checking for compatibility, e.g. at EBN.
As soon as compatibility cannot be guaranteed anymore, the name (and filename) 
of the interface will have to change, and therefore always having the latest 
interface in ${DBUS_INTERFACES_DIR} won't do any harm.
