Here's a proposal:

Similar to the idea with /etc/bluetooth/keytab.socket, additional
sockets can be created for other Bluetooth interface services such
as name scans, lookups etc. Regular users have access to these
capabilities based on socket file permissions.

Example:

   /etc/bluetooth/names          # The device name cache
   /etc/bluetooth/names.conf     # The device name configuration file
   /etc/bluetooth/names.socket   # The command socket

Command examples:

   SCAN            - Returns something similar to "hcitool scan"
   LOOKUP <bdaddr> - Returns the name if available in the names file
   DELETE <bdaddr> - Removes the name from the names file
   LIST            - Lists all names in the names file

The hcitool utility can be extended with these features too.

Would this make it?

Fredrik
