Yes! :) I think it is helpful to think about what the application is doing. It is binding to a well-known name so that other processes can access it through the well-known name. In other words, it can be thought of as a service. In snappy terms, it is a slot implementation of a service for the DBus apis the service provides under the well-known DBus name.

Due note that if the snap is being distributed via the Ubuntu public store, then the initial upload will require a human to grant use of this well-known name, but once that is done, subsequent uploads aren't blocked.
