[Bug 1262440] [NEW] It should be possible to grant D-Bus eavesdropping permission to AppArmor confined processes

[Tyler Hicks]

Public bug reported:

In 13.10, confined applications could not eavesdrop on a bus. There was
simply no way for confined applications to be granted permission to
eavesdrop. This should be configurable in the application's AppArmor
profile.
