Idea #5447: Integrate OBEX Filesend/receive into default bluetooth setup

bug This idea is a duplicate of Idea #95: Better bluetooth support.
Written by mweinelt the 22 Mar 08 at 22:27. Category: Internet & Networking. Related project: Nothing/Others. Status: New
Rationale
At the moment, if I want to receive Bluetooth files from some device i have to activate the Bluetooth OBEX Application, which pops up a Notification for each (!) file I send, instead of grouping them in some way. So if I send 20 files, i get 20 windows, which kind of sucks.

Additionaly i'd like this to be integrated into the default bluetooth setup, configurable in the "Bluetooth Preferences", reachable by the "Bluetooth Applet".

In hardy I right-click the bluetooth applet in the panel, open preferences, select the general tab, and check "receive files from remote devices"
