I don't know how the others feel, but to me sound does belong into a

those into Fresco yet.

I think force feedback should be handled by Fresco (or you can't use
haptic devices at all), Dunno about the sound... if you have good ideas wrt.
how to handle any of those devices, this is the time to step forward!
