I like your idea of having a 'command phrase', which the computer
would respond to, and then be in command mode until you terminated it.

<think someone talking loudly and _very_ authoritatively>

"The command 'about, face!' is a two part command.  The first part of
the command is the command of preparation.  That command is 'about,'.
The second part of the command is the command of action.  That command
is 'face!'.  When I say, 'about,' you will prepare yourself for an
about face.  When I say, 'face!', you will perform the about face.  Am
I clear?"

for some reason, any two part commands brings back Basic Training
memories.
