//! The D-Bus watcher server: the daemon's public side of the KWin handshake.
//!
//! KWin calls *us*, not the other way round. The compositor has no way to push a
//! focus event to an arbitrary subscriber, so the daemon owns a bus name and
//! exports an interface that the loaded KWin script calls into. This module owns
//! that name and turns those calls into [`FocusEvent`]s on a channel.
//!
//! # Owning the name is not optional
//!
//! Without the daemon holding `vu.valiq.blocker`, KWin's `callDBus` has nothing
//! to resolve and every focus event is silently discarded. That is why
//! [`serve`] must succeed *before* the script is loaded.
//!
//! # Fail-open
//!
//! If the daemon is not running, the KWin script's `callDBus` fails inside a
//! signal handler and the compositor is left alone — no exception, no log spam.
//! Blocking stops; the desktop keeps working. That is section 1.5.4's rule and
//! it is why the script swallows its errors.
