Stupid question: What's to stop you from producing a driver that connects to this device when unflashed, loads the firmware, then hands it over to the proper HCI bluetooth driver? (other than it being an ugly hack) You could post such a driver to Linux-usb and "solve" the problem in a way that (should) make everyone happy.
