Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-bluetooth

The menu in Maverick's bluetooth-applet does not have an option to turn off bluetooth, which the Lucid (and earlier) version had. The option doesn't appear to have been moved to bluetooth-properties either, it is simply not present. The ability to turn bluetooth off is important for power-saving purposes.

This is on Maverick as installed from beta, with all updates applied as of 5-Sept.
