Whoops.  For some reason I assumed that an SDK is something bulky, much
bigger than that.   At least, the last time I downloaded an SDK it was
hundreds of MBs.

Yep.   Which is what my post is all about.   I can go make a number of
assumptions and hit my shins on every rock on the road, or I could check if
anyone already knows - which looked like a good idea to me. :-)

Knowing that it most likely exists makes my job a /lot/ easier.

I've seen some talk about profiles, but nothing (code) specific (what it is
for, looks like and/or how to handle it).  It certainly gives me something
to throw into Google and see what it comes up with.

And thanks for the links. Both the D-Bus spec as well as that "best kept
secret" one. :-)
