It would be great if certain types of bluetooth devices could remain connected. Physical input devices only would likely be a good default. There is little reason, IMO, for speaker connections to be active.
In clamshell mode, I would expect all bluetooth connections to be active, but while suspended, please drop nonessential connections.
Being able to override the default disconnect rules per device would be ideal.

A few comments down:
> @asveikau: I think you should be able to play music while the lid is closed. That seems like a reasonable use case.
Also, wouldn't having a different behaviour, based on specific classes of devices, create more confusion for users?
Oh, and, all together now: Bluetooth sucks!
