But in general I think it would be nice to have a some more ad-hoc file
transfer tool. Would maybe OBEX be suitable for that?

We have for example that situation quite often that you sit together
with some people and their notebooks or other prtable devices but you do
not have a common network or simply do not want that (imagine a business
meeting). But you want to share some docs, files, etc.. Mostly small
stuff, not whole movies ;)
Last time I was in a meeting guess what happened: They tucked out a
floppy disk!

For those purposes something like
	bt-receive-file (waiting)
	bt-send-file <BD-ADDR> <file>
would be nice.
