 /*
  * TODO for GDBus:
  *
- * - Validate all data (e.g. UTF-8) and check all the required D-Bus headers
- *   are present and forbidden ones aren't
- *   - When writing: g_dbus_message_to_blob()
- *   - When reading: g_dbus_message_new_from_blob()
- *
  * - would be nice to expose GDBusAuthMechanism and an extension point
  *
  * - Need to rewrite GDBusAuth and rework GDBusAuthMechanism. In particular
  *      kind of pitfalls it avoids
  *      - Export objects before claiming names
  *    - Talk about auto-starting services (cf. GBusNameWatcherFlags)
+ *
+ *  - use abstract sockets in test code
+ *   - right now it doesn't work, dbus-daemon(1) fails with
