I wasn't really thinking of buttons for BT coex, but instead just
information exposed out and making it available. Reason for this is
users tend to be blind about btcoex stuff and it would be nice if we
had a way to inform the user of the btcoex mechanisms that actually
are being used. Does that change your answer?
