I am considering re-writing the HID descriptor to expose these separate
values as 'proper' axis, as they would provide both better resolution and
better functionality (ie. left foot braking).

Q1. Is this an acceptable thing to do?

Q2. In the case where there is significant change to the HID descriptor,
is it OK to just re-write the whole block (rather than patch/swap a couple
of bytes)?
When I asked a similar question on linux-usb, nobody answered, but nobody
complained when I submitted patches with 8 full report descriptors either.
They were accepted by Jiri Kosina.

I could also recommend using my tool for (de-)composing HID report
descriptors:
