Hi Marcel,

Aren't you maintaining bluez-gnome?  Could you add this fallback to
properties/input.c?

I'm curious what you mean by "would have broken the API."  Do you mean
if we were to remove the method now after it has been released?  If so
then I agree, it's too late.

But I'm curious why a new method was added rather than new
functionality to the existing method.  Are there new callbacks that
would have broken existing clients?  I guess it's a moot point now
though.

Thanks,
Andrew
