Is that the case here? How about complexity that would not pay off?
Compile switches tend to bitrot -- suddenly a particular option no
longer compiles or works because nobody is actually using that option
anymore.
We have at least Windows, OSX and Android as user. On those platforms
dbus would be disabled per default. Also Linux-users may decide to
disable dbus in Calligra per default too (I certainly would cause it's
just not needed for my use-cases). So, I do not think that option could
bitrot.
And yes, well, of course there are platform-local ways of ipc, on windows
and android that we might want to use instead of dbus, if there is demand
for it.
Such things should be done a few level down the stack outside of
Calligra. In any case I think it's unrelated.
