Excluding adding an external keyboard and mouse, what quality of life changes can be made to the deck to make keyboard and mouse work less terrible?

That’s a huge lifesaver. I genuinely was just giving up when I had to type passwords in

Typing my password was what prompted me to ask the question. Looking at my 20 character random password (I don't have a manager installed on the deck) I decided staring blankly out the window for two hours was preferable to attempting to enter the characters - blindly, since the password box was unmodifyingly hidden behind the pop-up keyboard - and hoping I got them all correct and every keypress actually registered, and only registered once.
