On-the-fly Keyboard and Mouse settings with weston.ini

Apologies in advance if this is not the right place. This is more of a feature request/inquiry than a bug.

From what I understand, in order to change mouse and keyboard settings on weston, such as

  • keyboard repeat rate
  • keyboard repeat delay
  • mouse acceleration and pointer speed
  • mouse scroll direction

one must edit weston.ini file, which, as far as I know, is only read when the compositor is starting up.

Question 1: Is this understanding correct? Question 2: If yes, how much effort would it be to implement on-the-fly keyboard and mouse updates? (amount of people / time needed?)

Much appreciated
