UI is a passion for me (sometimes):
I would like feedback in the GUI about what button does what action.
BUT there are lots of configs remotes,keyboards and joysticks.

(Pretending coding costs 0 time..............)
You would need an enhancement to the overall skin code : 
*a "button" image for every common event (and input context) in the skin.
*a way to say tho the skin: insert image of event XXX here
*a way to configure event-images related to context of
generic,keyboard,joystick,remote and to the current
keymapping/event-mapping.
