No-no, it's not about adapter powering off.

I meant that (external) devices never disappear from the bluez device
list during the discovery,
even if the (external) devices are turned off (i.e. they should be
purged by bluez).

So:
- bluez is central
- bluez is discovering
- peripheral appear for a moment, than disappear (i.e. peripheral
would be turned off)
- bluez would not remove device from the list (at least until
discovery is stopped)

Use case:
- bluez is monitoring environment (discovering literally forever)
- peripherals are brought in and out of bluez visibility range
- bluez list of visible devices grows infinitely and causes problems
(hundreds of devices)


Thanks,
   Andrey
