I don't think that's a big problem - I think it is just a documentation
task to say that monitoring of traffic on the dbus message bus is out
of scope for these properties. IOW they just reflect the security
properties of the libvirt-dbus <-> hypervisor paths, not the
dbus client <-> hypervisor paths
