Lars,

This is a small program that I wrote as a stopgap until kdebluetooth
gets proper dbus support.
You can (also) use it to bind text-based UI's such as dialog [1] to
bluez-libs.

http://gilboadavara.thecodergeek.com/bluez_pinhelper-0.1.tgz

Be aware that it is built against bluez-libs 3.9 and as such, runs only
under F7.

If there's broader need for it, I'll package it and submit it to
-extras.
