Adding a USB driver would be really ugly with UHCI, EHCI, OHCI, USB1, USB2, USB3, ICH6, ICH7, ICH8, ICH9, ICH10, ICH11, ICH12, boot mode and regular mode for keyboard/mouse and a diversity of HID reports. It's hopeless. I could never offer anything but crappy, limited support and it would just add a ton of crappy code that mostly didn't work. What would I gain? Nothing. A keyboard or mouse would not be improved. Solid State USB drives would be really nice, but it's not going to happen.
The same story is basically true for GPUs, audio, networking and AHCI hard drive drivers. God said 640x480 16 color was a covenant like circumcision, so the video will never change, even if a $LK,"Standard PC",A="FI:::/Doc/StdTempleOSPC.DD"$ was made. If you attempt multimedia, everything will break because memory will get fragmented with huge multimedia files. Some day, if super-simple high speed serial allows networking, there will be no browser within the 100,000 line limit and, with only 16 colors, the world wide web is not tolerable. FTP and telnet might be possible, in the far distant future, if they could fit within the 100,000 line limit. Currently, there are $TX,"81,223",D="DD_TEMPLEOS_LOC_OFFICIAL"$ lines of code.

I don't stand a chance working on native hardware, anymore. I could install and run natively on hardware from about 2005-2010. It requires BIOS's being nice enough to write USB mode PS/2 legacy keyboard/mouse support. As it turns-out, sometimes the BIOS has PS/2 drivers but purposely disables them, just to be mean. The CIA and whole industry is trying to mess everything up, on purpose. Perhaps, at a point of sale in a store, a thief could hack a credit card machine. Therefore, the BIOS companies actually want it difficult to make drivers and purposely make it broken.
