Found it!

What really needs to happen is rewriting the listing portion of the dbus
interface. It currently runs a blocking list operation that is subject to
timeouts. What should happen instead is that listing gives out a dbusobjectpath
under which it will issue listing status signals. This would then also allow
more atomic listing where entries are emitted as they arrive rather than having
to load the entire file list into memory and only once that is done emitting
the result all at once.

ListingObject {
Q_INVOKABLE void start();
Q_SIGNAL void file(file);
Q_SIGNAL void done();
Q_SIGNAL void error(msg);
}
