I have two problems:
1. I appear to need CAP_NET_ADMIN to bind to the netlink groups which give
me this information. I can poll for it just fine, but need
elevated privs to be notified. Why is this, and is there a workaround?
2. Even root doesn't get notification of state changes for Bluetooth
interfaces, because they're not treated as 'normal' network devices
like IrDA devices are. I can see the logic behind that -- by why
is it done differently from IrDA? Is there a way to get notification
of BT interface state changes?
