Perhaps I misunderstand D-Bus (having only glanced at its front page), but
I believe that messages can only be delivered to processes (that already
exist).  We'd have to have some sort of emacsclientserver (perhaps within
Emacs) that listened for them and translated them into emacsclient
invocations.  Of course, if such a server is in Emacs, it prevents having
another program to customize, but then it might as well do what the OP
suggests and handle the messages itself.
