If "just by using D-Bus" means what I think it does, then all desktop apps doing so are broken. You need to handle startup-notification too (gtk+ tries to handle startup-notification details for apps, but single-instance apps do things behind gtk+'s back in order to be single instance and thus require extra work). > http://live.gnome.org/DesktopAppsAsDBusServices > > (Crappy write-up, but I just haven't had time to sort it out. Sorry!) GUnique already uses D-Bus (with bacon as a backup). So, how is your proposal different than GUnique? (Other than startup-notification not being mentioned in your proposal yet?)
