I think it is pretty clear how these devices should be designed when it comes to firmware loading. Just having different USB PIDs for firmware loading stage and fully functional Bluetooth device stage is not that hard to do. Other companies have done this. If you device claims Bluetooth USB class descriptors, then it should behave like that and offer HCI protocol running on it.
