This increase connection time, increase complexity of implementation (lot of things can fail) and just complicate lot of things there. Plus adds that glitch which is not user friendly. Also bluetooth devices, like headsets, probably do not expects that somebody is going to do such thing and we can hit other implementation problems... And moreover it is just big hack and workaround for that problem. Not a reasonable solution. In btmon I can see it, so kernel already knows that information. Why it cannot tell it to userspace and bluetooth daemon to client application?
