you need to think bigger. Chromium supports joystick inputs (which come and

So is it using libudev to get that information? I guess would be
possible to patch it out, probably dbus would cover that base as well.
(As soon I have some time I might dabble with a dbus integration for mdev)
If it really is just for joysticks etc it might be worth seeing if it
can be made to use XInput instead. Maybe upstream had a specific reason
not do it that way in the first place, but in general, X apps really
shouldn't be touching the input devices directly.
