Yeah, sorry, I wasn't aware of that option, as I hadn't read the patch.
You two just seemed to be choosing between enabling or disabling the
native HFP AG implementation by default, and I just wanted to say that
I want it to be enabled by default, but without breaking
"headset=auto".

The option seems to be named "enable_profile_hfp_hf", which suggests
that disabling it will disable the ofono implementation of HFP AG as
well, and that's not what we want. Maybe rename the option to
"enable_native_hfp_hf"?

Ok, sounds fine, with the added note that we should set
"headset=native" by default.
