Hi Samuel I've tested a spacemouse-pro recently on Linux and Windows. It works as I'd expect (nothing was broken or buggy). It seems some users want it to work differently though, or there could be bugs I'm not hitting.
It would help if there was a detailed description of what you expect and how the current navigation could be changed to support this. If these are more opinionated changes, these could be preferences.
