Native driver for Eurobraille Esys displays #7488

Description

@LeonarddeR

Formally a duplicate of closed #5176, but that one specifically talks about including the current add-on based driver by Eurobraille.

I wonder, has a native driver been considered, either by Eurobraille, NV Access or a third party? The current add-on based driver has the following issues:

  1. Slow response for several keys, including routing and scrolling. This also occurs in JAWS and Supernova, probably an issue in a common part of the current driver
  2. No native integration for the Esys braille keyboard, so NVDA's braille input does not work
  3. When trying to initialize the driver without a display connected, it takes ages to time out. Even when a display is connected, there is a bug which causes the display not always being detected properly.
