Where the real time saving would come is if people write their code to use
InputDevices generically, so behaviours are not linked directly to mice
or Win98 device input.  At least it'd save us a lot of time :-)

For our CAVE, I've implemented an InputDevice that talks to VRCO's trackd.
The nice thing about that is that trackd abstracts a multitude of input
devices, so we don't need to change any code if we change from a Flock
of Birds to something else.  The JNI stuff is pretty easy, I'd never done
any before, but picked it up in a day (though I've programmed a lot of C
before).  How many other people are running trackd?
