GnomebtController maintains one too, in GConf.  I think what I should do
is continue to use the API I've created, and when your patches to hcid
become part of the official BlueZ release, I can rework the
implementation of the API to call them, rather than my own code.  That
way I can take advantage of the functionality without complicating the
API.

Unfortunately I can't really code against your patches to BlueZ until
they are integrated, as it creates problems for packaging for
distributions.
