Bug Description

[reported by a colleague elsewhere, but this is an entirely public matter]

"There is apparmor DENIAL when running Gallery application.
Either it's false error/denial and it should be removed, or app does not need it (it still runs) and should stop using it, or it should be granted.

from syslog
Dec 16 01:07:35 ubuntu-phablet dbus[1614]: apparmor="DENIED" operation="dbus_bind" bus="session" name="org.freedesktop.Application" mask="bind" pid=4838 profile="com.ubuntu.gallery_gallery_2.9.1.1101"

Tested on krillin-rtm-proposed - 179"

The original author did not note a repro sequence, but seemed to think this was a common occurrence from routine usage of the app.
