I thought you said some internally supported profiles get detected? Why
then do you need to use the ATT D-Bus interface? FWIW, since
attrib/client.c implementation doesn't match what's documented and since
there hasn't been anyone stepping up to update the code to use D-Bus
properties we'll probably not have the entire Characteristic D-Bus
interface in the 5.0 release. Instead, there's a plan to have a more
comprehensive and generic GATT D-Bus API for both peripheral and central
roles, which will probably land in 5.1 or one of the subsequent
releases.

It seems you've misunderstood this part. If the functions I mentioned
are used correctly you will not need to use Device.Connect at all.
Instead bluetoothd will start doing passive scanning and automatically
establish a connection to any device doing connectable advertising.
