Currently, Elite Dangerous has a software keyboard for console players. Some like it, some don't BUT as a feature for the VR players this is perfect. We cannot see our keyboards. This makes searching for systems and even communicating in chat rather clunky if you are not a touch typist.
In my mind, It would look like the current soft keyboard used in the console versions of the game, I would be able to move the "cursor" to the keys to be pressed via the HOTAS (like mapping it to the hat on the HOTAS/Controller) making it so I don't have to remove the headset just to type in a system to route, rely on VoiceAttack for mediocre dictation or precanned responses and preserves the VR immersion.
I do hope this finds it's way to a dev, as I believe this would be a GIGANTIC quality of life improvement for VR players.
