If you want the IOIO to pretend to be a Bluetooth keyboard, it does not need to act as a USB device, but rather as a USB host (hosting a Bluetooth dongle). Over Bluetooth, it will act as a HID device. The current firmware doesn't support this profile, but I don't see any reason why this shouldn't be possible if you're willing to spend the time and learn how this is done. Your final firmware is going to be very different from the stock firmware, possibly reusing the existing USB and Bluetooth stack (and maybe the UART driver).
