No.  Why do you want that?

I'm testing the development implementation of GIMP, especially with a Wacom graphic tablet. I would like to use several different pens, which should be distinguished by GIMP, so it can attach different graphic tools and parameters to each pen. Alexia Death, one of the GIMP developer, is in charge of this part. She developed a package called  watahod, available on sourceforge. This package needs that dbus configuration is allowed.

This package is needed for distinguishing the various Wacom pens. Alexia Death is aware that there is a slight risk in allowing dbus configuration. Maybe this could be an option proposed at the installation, and disabled by default?

You can call her at  alexiadeath@gmail.com, or on irc channel #gimp, nickname death.
