Hi !

I did not find any place to grant access to some services to a device
and not some others. If it is not possible to tell which service a
device can access, I think this is a major security drawback and that
bluez stack should implement a way to define services access.

For example, I pair with a device to send him a file. I don't want him
to be able to use my Internet access if dund is started. I don't want
him to be able to access files from obexserver and I don't want him to
be able to act as a keyboard for my host.
