I'd prefer to make this a public discussion. We can move it to csa.apps
if need be.

Yes, the UPP has a great many. And if someone were keen, many more
could easily be ported.
As for the list(s) of compatible items, these always (there's about 5-6
largish RISC OS ones) end up not being maintained, and the links quickly
go out of date. This is the wrong solution - such a list needs to be
automatically generated from packaged software. This would solve both
the problems of knowing what games (for example) software is about, and
of having outdated lists.
