Seb - thank you

HAL IO pins are strange and apparently very rare beasts which don't map
easily in my mind to the wire -- signal analogy. 

If we review HAL (and its documentation) I wonder if IO pins should be
deprecated. A two signal handshake would seem more transparent and allow
general interconnection of components rather a special purpose connection
such as is used between encoder and axis for resetting counts.

Thoughts anyone - perhaps I have totally missed the point.

Look at the hm2-servo sample config:
