Re: GATT service DBus interface violates DBus spec

Ossama, thanks for sharing - I didn¹t have the heart to go down that path
:)  Nice to have that solution available too.

Just a thought - since the Characteristic objects must provide their
service path via DBus Property, forcing their paths to be children of the
service path may be redundant, unless some logic is planned to be based on
the structure of the OM tree in the future.
