+    <para>The value of the parameter is copied into a memory area held
+    by the message object, stays in the possession of the caller and
+    may hence be freely changed after this call without affecting the
+    bus message it has been added to. If <parameter>type</parameter>
+    is <literal>h</literal> (UNIX file descriptor), the descriptor is
+    duplicated by this call and the passed descriptor stays in
+    possession of the caller.</para>
+
+    <para>For types <literal>s</literal>, <literal>o</literal>, and
+    <literal>g</literal>, the parameter <parameter>p</parameter> is
+    interpreted as a pointer to a <constant>NUL</constant>-terminated
+    character sequence. As a special case, a <constant>NULL</constant>
+    pointer is interpreted as an empty string. The string should be
+    valid Unicode string encoded as UTF-8. In case of the two latter
+    types, the additional requirements for a D-Bus object path or
+    type signature should be satisfied. Those requirements should be
+    verified by the recipient of the message.
