So if I need to monitor N different services, I'll need to repeat the requests N different times, and set up N different signal connections to watch for changes? That seems a bit overboard when the D-Bus interface was designed so this could be handled in one go.

I agree that a change like this needs to be tested with existing users of the API. Do you have a list of such users so we can find out whether it actually causes a problem?

I'm kind of curious, since any application that receives multiple service IDs from the D-Bus daemon is almost certainly seeing unpredictable behaviour from the current version of the client library.
