blueman-applet enables bluethooth when it starts

[pqwoerituytrueiwoq]

When the blueman-applet starts it changes turn the bluetooth hardware on
This makes the AutoEnable option in /etc/bluetooth/main.conf pointless

The applet should not change the state of bluetooth on startup

Line 76 of /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/blueman/plugins/applet/PowerManager.py turns the applet on
furthermore line 75 does not respect the value set on line 28

The applet should check the AutoEnable variable defined in /etc/bluetooth/main.conf
in the event it is not defined it should check for the for it under the old name of InitiallyPowered

On another note we have this:
    def on_manager_state_changed(self, state):
        if state:
            def timeout():
                self.adapter_state = self.get_adapter_state()
                if self.get_option("auto-power-on"):
                    self.RequestPowerState(True, force=True)
                else:
                    self.RequestPowerState(self.adapter_state)
            GObject.timeout_add(1000, timeout)
it would be better to do this:
    def on_manager_state_changed(self, state):
        if state:
            def timeout():
                if self.get_option("auto-power-on"):
                    self.RequestPowerState(True, force=True)
                else:
                    self.RequestPowerState(self.get_adapter_state())
            GObject.timeout_add(1000, timeout)
as there is no need to make a variable for something are are using only once especically when we do not know that we even need to check the adapter state yet

but the real question is why we need a auto-power-on option anyway
we could just drop lines 25-32 and do this
    def on_manager_state_changed(self, state):
        if state:
            def timeout():
                self.RequestPowerState(self.get_adapter_state())
            GObject.timeout_add(1000, timeout)

The only reason I can imaging we would want to turn bluetooth on when the applet starts is if the user manually started it as that would mean they have a bluetooth device they want to it
