I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on the following:
Isn't it a bit inconsistent, that when a device is connected, and a
characteristic is already notifying, no error is returned when trying
to subscribe to it again (bluez-5.43 and below used to actually return
an "Already notifying" error), but when a device is not connected, an
InProgress error is returned? This means that an InProgress error just
tells us that a device is not connected, which only adds ambiguity I
think.

Cheers:)
