The problem for me with dbus is perceived complexity, and lack of community expectations.

Dbus tends to be treated as something developers might use, while AREXX was something regular users used, and expected applications to support.

The technical capability is there, but something is lacking. And that is the case for a lot of things I miss from the Amiga - it's technically easy to replicate datatypes for example.
