Context
I have a Steelseries Rival 700 mouse.
End users can configure this mouse: Polling, sensitivbity, colors and effects, buttons, click macros, tactile effects, OLED display etc. blah blah.
It only has software for Windows and macOS.
I have used Wireshark and VM to gather information on how to configure the mouse, and used a simple script to test simple settings.
End goal is to have a piece of software I can use to configure most of the mouse.
Question
To write configuration to mouse one have to be super-user. To be able to write directly as end user one could add a udev rule for the mouse. My question is how bad this is.
It has root restrictions for a reason. Making the mouse open in userland is not the best, but how bad is it?
My thought is that it would perhaps be better / possible to create some sort of service that only takes defined sets of changes like the configuration options mentioned above. Then create a separate piece of software that communicate with this service.
Is the extra effort worth it?
