Arne Hess Stresses the Need for a Bluetooth Priority Profile

"...there is one thing in the Bluetooth standard which annoys me: there is no priority of devices. For instance if I walk to my car, for sure I have my phone connected to my headset... If I start the car, my car kit turns on and normally connects with my phone, if it isn't connected to another Bluetooth headset. If [the headset] is connected, [the car kit] doesn't connect. And here I see the problem: I have to turn off my headset before I start my car..."

Arne of The::Unwired hits on a great point in this short editorial of his. I'm not getting into a phase with Bluetooth where multiple devices may be competing for the same resources/profiles and I'd love to see additional intelligence designed to recognize when this happens and then resort to a priority chain to determine which competing devices should be connected and disconnected. What are your thoughts?
