Xbox One query: Keyboard, Mouse and Chatpad

Some related questions/suggestions in one post:
  1. Keyboard ad mouse support: MS is working on refining Keyboard Support for Xbox, any plans for 'officialising' this in Elite: Dangerous?
  2. Chatpad support: there's a handy little chatpad for the Xbox Controller, any chance of being able to bind actions to chatpad buttons?
  3. Smartglass: ditto!

I'd like to point out that I do think Frontier have really nailed Xbox Controller usage with the context Buttons+DPad combinations, so much so that I actually use an Xbox One controller on the PC as well now, but I still find myself using the keyboard for some things. I was mainly wondering if Frontier were considering expanding use of other input methods on the Xbox or if it is currently on their development roadmap?

For reference, here's a link to an Ars Technica article on K/M support on Xbox: https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2017/05/developers-can-look-forward-to-keyboard-support-on-xbox-one-games/?comments=1

Appreciate it's not really likely to be a priority for most, so this is more out of curiosity than anything else.
