There already is a bug about this:

It would be nice. I'm thinking about adding some smaller functionality
later on, like a UI dialog for connecting the Wiimote (at the moment
users are only told what they need to do on the command line), and
maybe improve the button assignments for recording scenarios (because
they are where I think the Wiimote is useful mainly).

I certainly know how to behave well in a community. I have a couple of
years experience in community leadership through Xfce, know how to work
with SCMs and can code C and C++. If that helps in making a decision,
perfect. If you don't think it's reasonable, that is fine with me as
well.
