Support for common operator panels.

I really like Kflop for its versatility and ease of use. Using frequently used wired/wireless operator panels would significantly reduce the implementation time. For example, the convenient WHB04B-4 wireless panel from Mach3.
This panel works as a USB HID device. This device has a Mach3 plugin with a graphical configurator for assigning functions and buttons. Are there any examples of using similar panels directly, without using Mach3?

We prefer hard wired MPGs connected directly to KFLOP for guaranteed real-time response. But KMotionCNC does support a wired/wireless Gamepad. See
here. Otherwise you would need to write your own KMotionCNC code to support such a device. The code for the Gamepad is in CKMotionCNCDlg::DoJoyStick()

There are also wired USB HID operator panels. The operators MPG does not require high speed real-time response.
I can't write code for Windows. It would be very useful to be able to connect commonly used operator panels, such as this.
