Undoubtedly people who are dbus developers understand the proper use
of the "organization_namespace". But suppose someone in a far
corner of the world wishes to contribute. All he knows is that a
three-part name-string gets applied to his Activity's interaction
with the rest of the system. Since *he* never tests that name, he
may feel free to put anything at all into that name-string.
I believe that life ought to be made as easy as possible for people
who want to enhance their Sugar systems. Requiring "correctness" in
all parts of name-strings, when to non-insiders those name-strings
might seem meaningless, does not make their participation easier.
