@jhedberg pointed out on #bluez-users that the Discoverable flag seems to be used when a peripheral wants to create a long-term relationship with a central, while it tends to be un-set when a peripheral or broadcaster just wants to send information. That implies that `requestDevice()` should check for the Discoverable flag, but `requestLEScan()` shouldn't. We can't implement that distinction on any platform except BlueZ as far as I can see, and we probably want the smaller BlueZ platform to match the larger Android and iOS platforms for compatibility. So the spec may wind up having a Note about the ideal situation while specifying something less ideal. -- GitHub Notification of comment by jyasskin Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/WebBluetoothCG/web-bluetooth/issues/141#issuecomment-235051993 using your GitHub account
