Do we fire a notification here to let folks know we're looking for a device? Maybe after a timeout? If there's a device already trying to pair its really fast

This probably needs a cancellable?

Actually this probably needs to be cancellable too

Not sure if there's a better way to detect device type. We also need to probably pair touchpads?
|
Actually wonder if we should add a check and bail out of this if we're not in the installer or initial setup sessions? |
|
Perhaps we should also bail out if we have any paired keyboards or mice? To make sure we're really only running if we must to make the computer usable |
|
It seems like on modern macOS plugging in a peripheral with the usbc charging cable also automatically pairs it. Might be a nice approach as well? |

Fixes #36
Depends on #37. Without this authentication simply fails
This does not work at all if a logitech dongle is plugged in. As in, we can't even know that we don't have a pointer. The dongle claims to be a pointer. No idea what to do about that tbh
