Description

It seems that people hate the dep tree required to run zbus (with tokio or async-io), perhaps we could try to implement minimal backend with my experimental https://github.com/PolyMeilex/slimbus crate, which is zbus with nearly everything fancy stripped out.

Obviously I don't intend to mantain zbus alternative, the idea is that for such a simple usecase as rfd it can just stay in a frozen state and never be updated. Dbus spec will probably not rug pull us any time soon.

Research direction

The issue names the experimental slimbus crate but no rfd files, tests, entry points, or acceptance criteria. Start by examining how rfd currently implements its zbus backends and reviewing the linked slimbus crate. The work is complete only when the intended minimal backend scope and validation criteria are defined and implemented.
