 Some utilities that make dbus queries used to work from a VT in build 802,
 and now don't. They do work in Terminal.xo as user olpc and as root - via
 sudo. For example, olpc-netlog (see #9587).

 Michael Stone pointed out the special (rainbow-triggered) session setup
 used in 802 to make this happen:

 Bert Freudenberg points out it's not "transparent" - scripts need to have
 a bit of extra glue to make it work...

 Seems to be a regression (do we use keywords for those?).
