Bluetooth Battery Service (BAS)

Is it possible to implement Bluetooth Battery Service (BAS) on the Jolla phone? This feature shows the battery level for connected Bluetooth devices (if supported by that device), e.g. headsets. It seems that Jolla itself can report its own battery status via Bluetooth to carkits. This feature is already present in iOS and Android.

If this feature is already present and working, I appologize, and rephrase the question to which compatible Bluetooth headsets are out there?

[request] Bluetooth Battery Service (BAS)Status

Edit: battery status is part of the Bluetooth HFP profile. So instead of implementing BAS, which apperently is part of Bluetooth LE, couldn't this be used to show battery status of connected devices?

Edit 2015-05-27, the iOS Bluetooth Headset Battery Level Indication is proprietary according to the Apple Bluetooth design guidelines (page 28).

Headset battery indication is implemented by two Apple-specific Bluetooth HFP AT commands,

So, is there some how a way to utilize these AT commands (initiated by the Bluetooth device) in Sailfish?

Edit 2017-11-10, Android 8.1 will have Bluetooth battery level support right out of the box.
