This is correct, but we are always looking for volunteers to implement GATT support.

We eventually want to add Proxy Server support in the daemon, but we will probably never implement Proxy
Client, because it does not have a practical purpose in a mesh system. Proxy is consdered a method to support
advertising incapable legacy devices (like an older mobile phone) so providing a Server a legacy device can
connect to is desirable, but a Client would be pointless except as a test tool.
