I can only speak from my experience with dcop, but I would try to use standard
types whereever it's possible. In case that there exists a d-bus counterpart
to the dcop command line utility (dbus-send maybe?), it would make the bluez
interface more accessible for scripts.
This (besides flexibility issues) is also the reason why I agree with Marcel
that "simple" return values, but more methods are better than one method that
returns all the information at once, using nested dictionaries or whatever.
