I would almost considered naming it "hid-switch" or "hid-joycon", though the last one is maybe strange as the Switch Pro Controller is quite different. For me maybe "hid-switch", I probably call JoyCon specific functions "joycon_" and something else for the Switch Pro controller. Not sure how much I like "procon_" though, maybe "swpro" or some other acronym with pro. Thanks, Roderick
