Maybe. I did a bit of reading and it looks like bdus was created for
communication between applications and for os->application
communication, not for passing messages around within a single application.

But dbus or not, it still leaves me with the question:  Is there any
theory/guidelines to determine when my application should send out
signals (instead of adding them ad-hoc on an as-needed basis as I do now).

Kind regards,
