On DBus, an application exports objects, and each object can have one or 
several interfaces, an interface defining a set of methods, properties 
and signals.

DBusSignal is a just a wrapper class around DBusObserver. If you want 
more flexibility, you have to use the DBusObserver class. With that 
class, you will see all DBus messages sent to your application, not just 
the signals.
