** Description changed: We expose the Greeter DBus API (whether we're active, which user is selected, etc) on the root / DBus path. This can easily conflict with other potential APIs (which are similarly rude as us to claim such a path). We should switch away from it. Potential clients right now: - indicators - test tools - adb - telephony stack - mtp stack - push stack - maliit - messaging app (?) + - SDK (unlocks device when deploying apps) While switching, it may be wise to move to some more standard APIs as well, like using logind's LockedHint instead of IsActive.
