My concern is about putting things not related directly to system
startup driven by rc(8) in /etc/rc.d and /etc/rc.conf.d directories.
Perhaps it would be better to still use rc.subr as a source of great
subroutines, but place the bluetooth scripts and configs in their
own directories -- rc.subr should support this.
