They never really show acceleration and deceleration onboard a spaceship

If you were going FTL, then you would just pass through it, without noticing.
In ST:TOS, they command crew on the bridge were often thrown around in battle
scenes, etc.
Personally, I think the thing we have to look forward to from the bridge is
explosives in the equipment consoles. Sad about the fatalities, but there is
always a cost to pay.
Handheld phasers would be cool if somebody comes up with a batterY that hold
crazy amounts of energy and would not short out in your pocket.
Surely, the Star Trek phasers didn't need anything more than an LR44!
