@Simon: yes, I was pleasantly surprised too. I had always heard that it was a hardware issue so when I read that rc-proposed had the new bluetooth kernel stack I thought maybe they worked around the issue in some manner in the kernel. Initially after booting into r109 I used the indicator and it all appeared to work properly (like on arale). Satisfied, I went and looked at bug #1318360 again (unrelated to this but...) then I updated the radio firmware as described in https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/msg08514.html. Then I saw your 'really' comment and decided to try this bug for real in my car. I enabled bluetooth via the indicator, it paired with the car. I played a song with the music-app via bluetooth. I disabled bluetooth via the indicator. It unpaired with the car. I enabled bluetooth via the indicator and it paired and I played a song with the music-app via bluetooth. All without rebooting.

I mention the updated radio firmware only because while I don't think it had anything to do with fixing this bug, because I didn't test pairing with the car prior to updating it, I'm not 100% sure it isn't needed.
