That's indeed the approach that I would suggest.

Preferably in that form:
/usr/share/dbus-1/interfaces/org.syncevolution.Server.xml
/usr/share/dbus-1/interfaces/org.syncevolution.Session.xml
/usr/share/dbus-1/interfaces/org.syncevolution.Connection.xml
That belongs into a development package, right? I don't want to disrupt
the work already done on packaging 1.0, so I'll put this change into a
1.0.1 update.
As far as I know, Qt D-Bus needs annotations to define the corresponding
local types. How do you intend to add them to the installed files?
FYI, I have asked whether we can get at least that part of the work
which was already done for a Qt app published quickly.
