What are the necessary changes to be made in gnome-bluetooth?

I'm guessing that we should add a "WIIMOTE" type of special casing in
the pin database, and pass the adapter address as per the above when a
PIN is requested.

Is there any way to detect which "type" of pairing is made with the
Wiimote, eg. you say that button 1+2 will only work for temporary
connections. Can we detect this? Would pairing anyway work?

Cheers
