When the desktop environment has a D-Bus session daemon, this should
just work.  I suppose using dbus-lauch is necessary in cases where a
minimalist desktop environment is used that does not take steps to
launch/configure the D-Bus daemon.

In that sense I think mako behaves like any other D-Bus application.
