@zwingo (and for reference if somebody wants to tackle this):

Same keyboard here with an MX Master mouse. Both devices (and some other
bluetooth devices iiuc) do not indicate a class in
`/var/lib/bluetooth/*/*/info`.

However, I think one could grep for Bluetooth Appearance values in
addition:

```
APPEARANCE_HID_KEYBOARD 961 --> works for K860 keyboard (Appearance=0x03c1)
APPEARANCE_HID_MOUSE    962 --> works for MX Master (Appearance=0x03c2)
```

Title:
  Bluetooth keyboard unavailable during LUKS disk unlocking

Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I need to keep a spare USB keyboard around to be able to boot my
  system. Having bluetooth keyboard support in initramfs would make that
  unnecessary.

  A trimmed down bluez in the initramfs will solve the problem. It would
  also need access to a copy of /var/lib/bluetooth in, say,
  /boot/bluetooth.
