Suggestion: Recenter button on the Rift itself

this one is pretty obvious (and probably been suggested before), but I am new to the DK2 (2 weeks)

the first thing that jumped out at me is a lot of games/demos say Sit back and hit a key combo to reset/recenter the Rift.

well if I sit back my keyboard is obviously out of arms reach and if I lean forward to hit the keycombo that defeats the whole purpose..

there needs to be a button the oculus itself that initiates the recenter

    Proper way of doing that is to display some "loading screen" for first few seconds (5 or so) and force in game recenter after lets say 4 seconds. Then the game scene can be displayed but Oculus had time to calibrate and game recentered it itself.

    In games that don't do that, just put your keyboard on your laps? Or use gamepad, joystick in your hand then press assigned recenter button.
