I really like the idea of the gaze-driven switch. I also, really,

I've recommended it a few times, but never been able to see the results, it
is a good rival to IR headmice and can work quite well... I equate it to
being a bit more like using a joystick than a mouse, but this might be to
some people's tastes/abilities. 

Cheers.

Simon

Excellent idea. And across various devices. Wii as well?

I'm thinking the time is ripe for movement on the big picture of Alt
input/access. There's interest in getting Mouse Tweaks into Gnome and other
discussion out there, including accessible login. I'll be pestering as many
as possible at the Gnome/Mozilla a11y summits.
