You can do this for any service that exposes a dbus interface.  Nothing
stops your from using dbus-send on the CLI, or whipping up your own

set of tools like ifconfig/ip/ifup/ifdown/etc that all perform discrete
functions in isolation of each other, or 2) a CLI client with an
interface like mysql or pgsql.
