How clients will discover the active paths if we change the format?
eg: "hci0" to "AA_BB_CC_DD_EE_FF"

The developers can use the dbus.h constants to compose the path, but if we
provide this service. It will be possible check if the path is active and/or
check if it provide a specific profile(pan,rfcomm).

When a client send a msg to a unregistered path, it will receive a reply
with "Device path is not registered" message.

I agree that at the moment this service is not much useful, the final
decision is yours :)
