Suggestion: Additional goodies. Bluetooth management

Sadly bluetooth management on linux sucks. The bluetooth management software requires bloated dependencies such as python sometimes deeply integrated with desktop environment.

I suggest to build a bluetooth device management software for XFCE which act as a gui frontend for bluez5 and also can be run independently without XFCE Desktop Environment.

Why would Xfce develop this if the expectation is that it will work on non-Xfce environments? Wouldn't this make sense as a general open source project? That supports multiple DEs?
