you know that this will only work if the other side implements a simple
trust policy. If you move to service based policies this makes no longer
real sense. The only advantage will be that the link key is exchanged.

If anyone have an opinion on this, please let me know. I am totally
undecided at the moment.

We support if for the incoming connection on L2CAP and RFCOMM level, but
nobody added support for outgoing connection. If you set the LM_AUTH
flag for outgoing connections it will be ignored. Maybe it is worth to
implement it.
