[Bug 1176127] [NEW] GLib Application Registers a DBus name under application confinement

[Ted Gould]

Public bug reported:

Under application confinement applications won't be allowed to register
names on DBus.  GApplication returns an error if it can't do that which
makes programs unhappy.  Instead they should just believe they are the
primary app instance if they're running under isolation.

** Affects: glib2.0 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: High
     Assignee: Ted Gould (ted)
         Status: Confirmed
