Take gedit for example. It is a text editor, and:
[23:44 TA|catwell] ldd $(which gedit) | grep dbus
libdbus-glib-1.so.2 => /usr/lib/libdbus-glib-1.so.2 (0x00007f5df48bb000)
libdbus-1.so.3 => /usr/lib/libdbus-1.so.3 (0x00007f5df467c000)
AFAIK it uses dbus only to communicate with itself (between its instances).
There is no iteroperability problem, so D-Bus is not that useful to me.
But then again, maybe I don't know how gedit works well enough to judge...
