1) It sounds like a cool idea at first, but if you try and live with it it quickly becomes annoying. It's one of those misfeatures of real cabinets where nostalgia is IMO false (sort of like if we simulated Amplifone flybacks going up in flames for Atari vector games).

2) People building illegal for-profit MAME cabinets would benefit greatly from a directinput mame.ini option.
