I think we can drop Android 2.x support, by the time Allegro 5.2 is
out there will hardly be any left. But if it's easy enough to use a
different joystick driver for 3.1+ only, we should do that instead.
It requires using some constants that are in 3.1 only so I don't think
we can keep 2.x compatibility.
As for accelerometers, that can probably just be a joystick (with 3 or
6 axes). Things like a steering wheel or gas pedal or thrust control
on a flight stick also would just appear as a joystick axis right now
so in general we don't want a different event source for different
types of axes.
True.
Ok I don't know when I'll have time to implement this but I will eventually.
