Support more types of USB devices, act like a USB hub? #43

Is it possible to support more types of USB devices? I also have a microphone and webcam that I'd like to able to switch which computer they're connected to and follow the keyboard/mouse. I'm fine with them appearing and disappearing for each computer as they switch. I have no idea how possible this, but would be really neat to just kind of act for some devices like they're connected to a USB hub and sometimes that hub is connected to one computer and others times, another.

Hey, I've given this some thought before - mic could be doable, but it could have issues like move mouse to the other screen and your audio gets muted to VC you are participating in on the other screen.

Webcam is a bit tougher and might present a challenge for the UART connecting the picos, as 7-8 meg is the upper limit with clock rate used.
