Why was this dbus disaster released mid-release?

Where was this discussed? Where was this tested? Why wasn't the change 
*REVERTED* immediately?

System security? This is local access only. dbus has been open for 
years. A dbus package with the change REVERTED should had been released 
instead of having to wait weeks for fixed packages. System Services, 
PackageKit, bluez, and who knows what else is still broken.

Today's dbus updates didn't fix anything by the way. Yes, bugs are 
filed, but discussion of the issue isn't appropriate in those bugs.
