Bug Description

Autopilot 1.4 is just around the corner - it makes a few changes to the dbus wire protocol, and unity 7 will either need to change to keep up with this new protocol, or use the older version of autopilot in it's test runs. THe new autopilot version introduces a number of oft-requested features, so upgrading is the best solution.

To upgrade, you need to:

1) Update unity's DebugDBusInterface class to work with xpathselect 1.4
2) Update Unity's DBus marshalling class(es) to speak the new dbus wire protocol. This is documented in the documentation found with in lp:~autopilot/autopilot/experimental

Once this work is done, it needs a coordinated release with the autopilot components.
