Title:
  Untrusted Helpers using Trusted Prompt Sessions should be socket
  activated

Status in apparmor-easyprof-ubuntu package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in ubuntu-app-launch package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Passing the Mir FD over DBus isn't ideal because it's a generic bus
  that is readable by more than the app itself. Instead there should be
  a direct socket connection made to pass the Mir Trusted Prompt Session
  FD that is unique to the untrusted helper that is being started.
