About the only thing that raised my eyebrow was the mention of d-bus in 1.4: I hope d-bus is never a hard requirement, and Inkscape always remains init-system agnostic (which means checking libraries for such init-agnosticism).
dbus isn't an init system. are you thinking of systemd?
Honestly, dbus is great and should have had more support when we had it. But that's for another day.
what functionality would dbus add to inkscape? If it's so wonderful, does that mean that Inkscape on non-linux systems woudl be crippled? or is it that there would be two ways to do everything that can be done via dbus, one for systems where dbus exist and one for where it doesn't?
