The logic could enter an infinite loop because it tried to propagate local changes to g-s-d that were caused by signals sent by g-s-d. For example: 1. slider is set to 50 2. Set(50) dbus call is sent 3. slider is set to 51 4. Set(51) dbus call is sent 5. PropertiesChanged arrives due to Set(50) 6. this._sliderItem.value is set to 50 7. notify::value is emitted from this._sliderItem 8. Set(50) dbus call is sent 9. PropertiesChanged arrives due to Set(51) 10. this._sliderItem.value is set to 51 11. notify::value is emitted from this._sliderItem 12. Set(51) dbus call is sent To alleviate this issue, block signal handlers when the local state is changed due to a remote event.
