Which is OK, as usually they wouldn't work at all anyway without fixed 
report descriptor (or will be behaving in unexpected bogus way). The other 
features (force feedback and missing mappings) are not that crucial 
anyway.

Plus, my longer-term intention is to move all the special mapping into 
HAL.

By this you mean the short window start-stop-start during bootup, or 
something else?

The slowdown shouldn't really be problem in case of HID, the devices 
themselves are usually pretty slow.
