Ah, that's quite an issue as this is the only method that isn't
supposed to be changed.
However, it's a huge drawback, so we'll have to do something about
this. Can't it be worked around on the glib-dbus side ?

About the version bump, the next version will be 2.0 anyway as we need
to change interface names, along other fixes and changes.
