I've found no reference to that in the DBUS docs. And the interface,
being designed to allow all sorts of bindings, is horribly bloated.

Does LASH use DBUS in a network-aware way ? Can it launch an app on
a remote machine ?

The *last* thing I want is to have layer upon layer of protocols
and abstractions. And XML.

Once the apps have the OSC fucntionality build-in (and they need that
anyway), they can talk network wide to each other and to a session
manager, it just needs definition of the protocol. No need to add
anything else.
