Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The controls don't feel natural to me, especially not the aiming and having to try to set 'weapon angle' over and over. Many people are already very comfortable with using a mouse and keyboard and I don't see why there isn't any option to disable the controller affecting the menu (there IS one, but the VR controllers bypass that toggle, so it doesn't work.) and use the HUD center to aim like on desktop Doom. You can actually use the keyboard for everything if you want, and it feels great to run around with WASD and use the mouse to move around the viewport; you just can't AIM anymore without a third hand.

Describe the solution you'd like

Fix controller disable for menus (Controller Options > Block Controller Inputs In Menu)
Add a toggle to disable VR controllers' other functions in VR options
Add a toggle to aim with the viewport
Make the crosshair bound to where it'll actually go instead of the HUD (with controllers disabled I think it would be a good idea to aim with the HUD because of the Pitch/Roll lock options, which also may be useful for aiming.)

Describe alternatives you've considered

how about removing batteries from the controllers before starting gzdvr so it doesn't detect them and falls back into KBM mode? also use laser pointer mod as "crosshair"

on the Quest 2, it forces hand tracking that emulates the controllers if controllers are out of view or disconnected, and ALVR emulates the controllers even without a headset connected under SteamVR. I was able to disable the controllers in ALVR and get mouse aim to work, but why is there not a command line switch for that?
