Would either of you be able to make some of those changes? Perhaps instead of changing wpas_dbus_signal_sta() and the corresponding signature, an additional signal (emitted at the same time) could be "StationAdded"/"StationRemoved" with properties since we now have a "Stations" property and real station objects.
