Make inputs device-based instead of Windows ordering?

Good morning/afternoon/evening everybody.

I would like to make a request about the input system, to see if it would be feasible/possible. Currently, Supermodel sets inputs according to the Windows order in the "Game Devices" menu, so you see things like JOY1_XAXIS. The problem is that if you unplug or plug a controller and change the order, you need to remap everything, as now JOY1 may not be the same controller you used to assign the inputs.

I would suggest maybe using a device ID or the name of the actual device instead, so that Supermodel recognizes what controllers were used to assign each input, so that it's independent of the order in the Game Devices menu.

Thanks for reading and I'm awaiting your reply.
