I don't think extending the dialog box to allow character entry would be that difficult.
At least for one remote type, Of course Sub has a harder job, if he did it, it would need to be uniform over all supported hardware
The same same technique used by cell phones should be fairly simple.
The problem would come in when you wanted to put the string somewhere.
Unless it was invoked from a particular data entry field, there would be no place for the input to go.
I don't think even the plug-in structure is defined in such a way that this would work.
