I've read tales of some legendary (literally, not in the "awesome" sense of the word) bluetooth adapters that could be switched in to "HID proxy mode", and present themselves as uhid(4) devices, which would then be picked up by the OS as HIDs. Supposedly those devices would remember the pairings with keyboards/mice, and that would stick across boots. Apparently, they're very hard to find, and even harder to get to work properly. If you are really desperate, apparently you can use a whole computer with a full OS just for the task: https://github.com/mikerr/pihidproxy --
