then we should not use an object for the singleton support. The overhead
for an application to get it right is too much. The singleton support
should be as less intrusive as possible.

So maybe something like bluetooth_instance_init(...) and a corresponding
bluetooth_instance_cleanup() would be better.

This is purely from the application standpoint. If it internally uses an
BluetoothInstance object, I don't really care.
