I'm not sure bus names would need escaping, but maybe somebody will
surprise me.
OK, how about:
dbus_bool_t dbus_validate_bus_name (const char *interface);
dbus_bool_t dbus_validate_interface (const char *interface);
dbus_bool_t dbus_validate_method_name (const char *interface);
dbus_bool_t dbus_validate_path (const char *interface);
char *dbus_escape_path (const char *path);
