	Well, I'm not an expert in this area but faced the same problem:
in some embedded systems - we're used infrared non-standard keyboards
and small (128x64 dots) LCD displays.  My solution were very close to yours
just interpolated to 4.8 codebase.  It worked well enough and having such
driver in the base system will be a big help indeed.
