Indeed it's not, but the bluez documentation states

"        void DisplayPinCode(object device, string pincode)

            This method gets called when the service daemon
            needs to display a pincode for an authentication.
            An empty reply should be returned. When the pincode
            needs no longer to be displayed, the Cancel method
            of the agent will be called.
            If this method is not implemented the RequestPinCode
            method will be used instead."

So in practice RequestPinCode is used and you can pair those devices, we
should still support DisplayPinCode so please open a bug (unsure if
there is a visible user experience difference between those?)
