Something that I would like to see improved is safety at the driver station...

There are many cases where the robot auto-disables, but avoiding a double auto never came up during the beta. If you feel strongly, please post or discuss directly with FIRST. Clearly safety is a priority, and this is their call. BTW, I don't get the distinction between suggestion one and two.
As mentioned by another response, the spacebar acts as the Disable button. It is polled like a joystick button and should work no matter the key focus. When attached to a field, field controls take precedence, and F1 serves as a way to redo joystick enumeration and is the only key shortcut. As for the Stop button, it initially acted as a disable, but again, during beta requests were made to simulate what would happen on the field.
Similarly, requesting the FMS Lock have another way out is something that should be made on the FIRST forums. With encrypted radios, I don't really see a way to wirelessly connect to the robot anyway, but again, it is their call. I think I see the issue with the code that can allow for unlocking. I'll notify FIRST and see what they want to do about it.
