(Steam Controller) More settings for Mouse-Joystick touchpad mode
I think the mouse-like joystick mode for the touchpad is a really nice feature. It doesn't work very well with games that have non-configurable software deadzone, but if you can set the game's deadzone to 0, it works really well, even better than mouse input because you can still use the aim assist for controller users. So I think it deserves more love. Here are a few settings I'd like to see in its configuration:

- Sensibility: Yes, I know sensibility is limited by the game's own joystick sensibility, and it only gives ouputs between a min and max (0-1, 0-255, whatever), but there isn't a setting (as far as I know) to change how "long" is this range, I mean, how fast you have to sweep to reach a maximum output. This would allow you to fine tune aiming precision without changing the response curve. There's a setting called "Enhance Small Movement Precision", but I'm not sure it does exactly what I'm asking for, as lowering it makes small movements less smooth, but increasing it makes the touchpad/gyro too sensitive.

- Emulated deadzone: When you can set the game's deadzone to 0, aiming becomes really responsive, but just resting your thumb over the touchpad makes the aim tremble, making it hard to keep your crosshair still. This can normally be corrected by setting the game's deadzone a little higher, but if the game doesn't have a very precise setting for this, then it would be nice to have a deadzone setting in Steam Controller config. This is, set a minimum speed you have to sweep the touchpad for it to give any input.
