  * #GDBusServer is a helper for listening to and accepting D-Bus
- * connections.
+ * connections. This can be used to create a new D-Bus server, allowing two
+ * peers to use the D-Bus protocol for their own specialized communication.
+ * A server instance provided in this way will not perform message routing or
+ * implement the org.freedesktop.DBus interface.
+ *
+ * To just export an object on a well-known name on a message bus, such as the
+ * session or system bus, you should instead use g_bus_own_name().
