I -imagine- that UX wise, enabling bluetooth during a pairing flow, and
disabling it again if we don't connect is perhaps the best plan from a
UX & battery perspective ?

Yep - I guess so; "type your IP address here" or whatever ?

the .apk inside our build tree, and work with Tor to get them building &
up-loading automatically from the new Android tinderboxen :-)
Nice work though,
