I'd recommend that you discuss this issue with the origin developers of SBL instead of me. I just did some minor modifications. There were reeasons for them to create SBL with a lot of code from brltty and a lot of code from themselves, and there were probably also good reasons for brlttys developers why the new code in SBL, like keyboard-only navigation and profiles, was not adopted into brltty. This was before my time. I use SBL because it has all the features that I need for my distro. Since SBL is also GPL, feel free to adopt as much code as you want in brltty, but I know that the braille interface is very different now from what it was in the past.
