This should optionally (ie. if HAL is available at compile and run-time)
use the new HAL API that allows to enable/disable builtin Bluetooth
devices completely (ie. not just not configured to accept anything, but
completely disabled, unplugged, and not consuming one bit of power).
The HAL API is pretty straight forward:
http://people.freedesktop.org/~david/hal-spec/hal-spec.html#device-properties-killswitch
and
http://people.freedesktop.org/~david/hal-spec/hal-spec.html#interface-device-killswitch
It's implemented for Sony and Dell laptops, with another opened RFE for
IBM laptops:
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10053
It should be dead-easy to implement for someone with access to an IBM
laptop (unlike me).
