Perhaps the error message isn't that clear.  Or, are you simply saying that API
was a poor choice of words?

Apparently not.

Yes, that does appear to be the problem.

Then perhaps you should read the tutorial:

http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Tutorials/D-Bus/Configuration

The tutorial contains a workaround.  Therefore, there is a bug.  It seems
pointless to argue about whether it is a KDE issue or a D-Bus issue since the
fact is that they do not work correctly together and that problem needs to be
corrected.
