    <thetext>Currently the spec requires implementations to express the set of controls on a controller in two arrays: buttons and axes. All of the platform APIs I&apos;ve used expose a set of buttons and a set of axes, so this makes sense. However, there are also frequently some controls that aren&apos;t exposed as either of those, so some internal mapping is required. For example, d-pads are frequently exposed as a &quot;POV hat&quot; (since the USB HID was written in the days of actual flight-stick like joysticks).

I think we need to have some spec text that speaks to how to put these controls into the list of buttons/axes so that the list of controls are consistent across browsers (at least for the same OS+driver combination).</thetext>
