Similar to the Remote Play feature where you can use a phone touchscreen as a game controller, it would be cool if SteamOS/GamepadUI implemented the ability to add a virtual controller via touchscreen input on gaming tablets such as the ROG Flow Z13, which is capable of running SteamOS 3.8. This feature would let you avoid the need to connect a keyboard or a controller for simple games that do not require precise controls.

This could be implemented alongside a dedicated menu entry for touchscreen #10621
