From my post at the Botball forums:
Could a plugin system be added to the Simulator for
emulation of sensors? For example, a Top Hat Sensor
plugin would have a slider bar from white to black
which would then control the input the Simulator got. A
Rotation Sensor plugin would have a dot on a circle
which you could drag around.
More advanced plugins could emulate encoders based on
the motors, or pretty much any kind of sensor hookup.

Definitely an interesting idea, and one we might look into
later. Only major problem would be figuring out screen real
estate for all that stuff, since we have to support 800x600
resolutions.
