Im about to send a patch to remove this from BlueZ, I hope somebody
from gstreamer community can step up and take the task to move this to
gstreamer tree, if nobody does I will eventually do it but this might
take some time for me since Im quite busy with upcoming BlueZ 5.0
(which is also the reason why we are cleaning up the tree).
