We create an IP infrastructure (using Ethernet Bridging) route (or broadcast) packets between devices. If some BTH devices donot support PAN profile we can make devices attached to them as proxies. The adv of using PAN profile is that it can easily attached to IP back bone and this proj requires that (although it can result in some addressing issues). I am not sure if this is what David wants but you are correct there is no need to spoof addresses or try getting the raw BTH packets etc. I haven't read his documents in detail, but as I understand it he want's to connect from a PC in one piconet to a mobile phone in another piconet. These piconets are connected through an IP backbone and not via a scatternet. So he must make the SPD records of the phone visible in both piconets and if needed route a L2CAP or RFCOMM connection between them. However it is his master thesis and not mine.
