Ugh, please trim your quotes and use a useful mailer that will indent things.

Doesn't the kernel's bluetooth subsystem already know anyway?

Not all of the information I believe. Things like A2DP streaming will be best known at the userspace. Also, there is no way to tap these information at the kernel subsystem right now. But, there is a clear defined way to get these information at the userspace. Also, profile based information might not be available at the kernel space.
