If I recall correctly, the numeric keypad's keys were just "mirrored". Maybe not… something tells me that there were two additional lines in the schematics (and even some code leftovers in the ROM?) Ah well, I'm mixing things up. I'm sure somebody knows for sure 
You mean PS/2 mice? Just because plus/4 and those use mini-DIN connectors doesn't mean that there's a "software way" to use those  Besides, mouse-support already exists in various flavors, e. g. SID-Card's joyport can handle 1351's in joystick and mouse mode, same for BSZ's new card, dedicated mouse adapters for serial mice exist and then there's TLC's RS232 cart which can handle mice as well
It's not really a hardware problem but rather a software one. Unless someone includes mouse support in his programs …
I wonder if the Plus/4 version of Magic Desk ever shows up. Ppl saw it, so it should be out there somewhere
