They are not wrong, it is just a different use case :-)

This is about the same if i statically enable the bluetooth service
on a SUSE machine. But i would like to avoid that (no need to run
hcid on a machine that will never see a BT device). At the same time,
i like to have it "just work", without the user needing to configure
it. So i start the bluetooth services via udev, when a BT device
is connected.

This works very well once the machine is up and running. If the device
is connected during boot, it is different, because the udev "coldplug"
happens before most of the services are started.

I hope this clears up my (and Daniels) intentions :-)

Have fun
