I know everyone wants the kitchen sink put into this branch, and that garbear and others are working as fast as possible on little things like stability, but I was wondering if anyone has explored implementing Chatpad support.
For a gaming HTPC, it would completely eliminate the need for an external keyboard, and it works great with the 360 controllers.

There's a project called Chatpad Super Driver that hasn't been updated in almost a year, but supposedly it works only with wired controllers. I was able to find some information in the Google Code archive for the same project, and another project based on some of that work for Windows 7, but it's all a little out of my depth (I'm new to all this stuff, though I am a .NET developer by trade).
