Which bring me to the next question- since a GATT client makes more sense for a dual mode stack such as Bluez, shouldn't we focus first on Monitor kind of roles for LE profiles and later consider Reporter type roles for testing only?

Sorry, actually it was a mistake from Claudio (which I hadn't noticed
when I made my comments) :) This is a *Monitor* API as I mentioned.
The doc itself mentions:

+Interface      org.bluez.ProximityMonitor

And you are correct, our current focus is on Proximity Monitor & Find
Me Locator (AKA "client") roles. The "server" roles will be initially
implemented for testing purposes.
