Brasero is also using GApplication. At this time (beta stage) a few
weeks before releasing 2.32.0
it's pretty bad reverting back to libunique.

In the next release cycle i guess we will take more caution adopting
new technologies because
we spent most of the time porting to new ones (gsettings, gdbus and
gapplication).
