We don't focus on hidd anymore and everybody that keeps using these
crappy --connect stuff in the init script and complains that something
is not working should ask himself if you are actually understand how HID
within Bluetooth is working. All HID will re-connect to the host. That
is a fact and it works this way. No excuses. Everything else is a bug
and all workarounds are wrong. Period.

Anyway. We are pushing the Bluetooth input service and this one should
be used and issues should be fixed there. Actually the latest
bluez-gnome from CVS can even connect HID via bluetooth-properties.

Marcel
