I'm in the process of creating another example to test DBusServer (there
might be an issue with the class with respect to using Glib::ustring
instead of std::string that I'm not sure about).

I think another example testing the newly wrapped
Gio::DBusConnection::register_object() method and related API might be
good and I might do that one also though not right away because the
first example will take a little time to complete.

Overall, the API looks pretty much completely wrapped with a few things
missing here and there.  I might follow up to let others know what is
still missing.
