About leds: in order to decide which leds to set in a meaningful way we
need to know the X in /dev/input/jsX, and udev is the only way I know
to find that out, so either in a bluez plugin or in a standalone
daemon I think the answer is in userspace.

About knowing the led status, I have to check if we can read the led
settings out of the device after we have set them in the HID Output
Report, that's a good point.

Thanks,
