We need a way to filter on service classes instead of major/minor classes. Also we need some support for Extended Inquiry cases where we would get a list of UUIDs for free during inquiry. Before we extend the filters, we need to make the Device Selection widget more generic. For example configureable title and be able to hide the filters part. Take a lot at the current code for the wizard. It looks ugly and is wrong in that context. Also in case of the wizard we don't wanna show bonded and trusted devices at all. We already know about them and wanna setup only new ones.
