Yeah that's true, I could see wanting one of those dedicated controllers (Logitech G13 kind of thing), maybe easier for some to memorize the locations of keys.

You could also put a small camera on the front so that you could call up a real world view at will. That actually might be a good idea for nausea type stuff, hit a button and it kills the virtual view and gives you a real world view.
