Well, I am planning some basics, we can then expand as needed :)

Basically yes.  We could do this in a couple ways:

1) deregister processHidEvent and register new processModalHidEvent
2) have an if/else in the processHidEvent method.

Option 1 would be the least impact to performance, but I will need to do 
a lot of testing to ensure it works properly.

Also we will need to add duplicated code between the two event handlers, 
but this can be removed by handling a proper copy constructor on Hid::Event
