this is patched such that the daemon command reads recipient:message pairs from stdin instead of exporting an object to dbus while outputing json as normal (though it currently also outputs "sent $msg to $recipient" in response to input as well). it also includes reactions in output, and will include quotes.
note that currently sending multiline messages does not work, lines after the first are ignored.
expect the wiki and builds to be broken for now.
