Thanks for working on this. As already mentioned in the bug report, I am
also working on this functionality. In my implementation, the D-Bus
classes are separate from the rest of the sources, for the sake of
readability.

Alexander and I discussed a possible API which allows to access the
window, the view containers (slots) and the views themselves. The API is
still in flux -- it is only clear that there will be some basic
operations (reload, close, go_to etc.). Please specify in detail what
functionality you need so that we can consider its addition to the API.

Best regards,
 Christian Neumair
