I can see how it would benefit those with disabilities. I do not think I would make much use of such a thing. I would not want it as default in a reader as it would be increase cost. But since readers have WiFi/BT, including an API to support optional remotes would be a good idea and that wouldn't cost much.
As for TV remotes, I remember when it was a matter of convenience. Before we got a remote for the TV, I was my parent's remote control. But today, the remote is a necessity. There are so many functions that you couldn't control everything from the set.
