Description Simon McVittie 2009-10-13 15:04:02 UTC 
Before rejecting new accounts as impossible, MC should re-list activatable CMs, and re-introspect the CM info, on the offchance that it has become possible to create that account.

This might be blocked by dbus-daemon learning to pick up new .service files during runtime.

(We don't have change notification for the list of activatable CMs, which can only change by installing/uninstalling, the list of live CMs, which can theoretically change at any time, or any of the CMs' info.)

Perhaps we need to work around dbus-daemon with a HelloIAmANewConnectionManager signal, emitted by services' dpkg postinsts or whatever... :-(
