Is it possible to add a vid,pid filter for the mouse?
Some software would like to enable left and right hand mouse, but current software can't configure different layer for different mouse, so it would be great if there was a way to enable assigning different layer to mouse that are plug at the same time.

No sorry, as explained in the FAQ, XMBC uses mouse hooks which do not give ANY indication of which device the message came from.
The only way you could distinguish that would be to use Raw/Direct input (which you can not modify or block - so that's pretty useless) or create a device/filter driver that could intercept at a *much* lower level but that's a completely different ball game and not really possible for a hobby developer as you need to get a driver signing certificate (which is expensive and only available to legally registered companies, I couldn't get one even if I had the cash!)
