One thing that pops up often is devices aren't recognized in a smart way. Specifically - if I create a dashboard of all my devices and 'auto' fill - numerous devices come up incorrectly or at least in a way that is either unexpected or unnatural.
I feel there is a missing attribute or maybe a better word is parameter that all drivers could / should have for setting a primary capability.
For example, I have a sensor that has multiple functions - battery, presence, humidity, motion. When my dashboard fills from a clean start - one of my sensors comes up as Generic. I have to reach in and toggle it to Motion sensor. There are a number of things like this - tiles with text, some switches that report presence...
As an enhancement, and a flag as drivers improve and move forward, adding a 'Primary' value or parameter on the line such as:
capability "Motion Sensor", Primary
capability "Presence Sensor"
This would allow a detection of what the developer wants displayed by default, without displaying everything the device can do and making it less intelligent at the user GUI side.
I'm not suggesting that HE is wrong and powerful in that it displays everything - I'm suggesting that Drivers could get smarter. Adding this parameter would help dashboard app developers and dashboard users get a clean generic installation - without loosing the ability to change the display of the tile to whatever they want.
