Yep... whatever can be said of their software, Microsoft has a history of making good mice and keyboards.

I don't know for sure, but I suspect so. Everything about X device configuration long predates USB or any kind of complex input devices, so a new designed-from-scratch system like Wayland is likely to be built entirely around hot-plugging - device shows up, udev notifies whatever component is responsible for such things, and it will register the device with whatever configuration sources are available.
