[BRLTTY] Braille input?

Hi.

We do have the PASSDOTS command so that drivers can send along
braille keyboard keypresses to the core.  Some displays
do have a braille-keyboard layout by default, and most of
our drivers for them do implement something like "input mode" so that
the keys can be switched between commands and braille input.
The core does currently translate the dots to text and inserts.
But what if I want to use the input mode for typing Unicode braille?

Can we add a toggle setting so that I can decide if I want PASSDOTS to
go through the translation table, or straight to unicode braille?
