first time contributing in a open source project. I would like to
work on the gamepad plugin that was proposed and would like to
hear your opinion.</p>

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px;
margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;
-qt-user-state:0;">* My idea was to have 2 buttons when you open
the plugin. One button for the gamepad and one for the editor.
When you open the gamepad a list of layouts/themes is shown (e.g.
psx,ps2,xbox etc) and you chose your layout and start playing. In
the editor you can edit a layout/theme. You can edit the button
icons, add actions (e.g. in openmorrowind open chest, start
playing playlist from library etc) and assign hardware keys to
button (for tablets with gaming buttons).</p>

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px;
margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;
-qt-user-state:0;">* Now about implementation what do you think?
Sould i send a message to the server when a key was pressed or
should i send a message with the gamepad state in very short
intervals( eg button1:pressed || button2:not-pressed) or keep both
and change in settings?</p>

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px;
margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;
-qt-user-state:0;">* Lastly some more ideas i had about the
actions for the buttons. For media controls we already have the
mpris plugin , we also have have the keyboard plugin and touchpad
plugin and hopefully many more coming. </p>
<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px;
margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;
-qt-user-state:0;">But what if wanted to have all those plugin in
one screen? How about all these separate plugins were all simply
buttons you can edit in the editor? What do you think?<br>
