Off	On	normal forward but using friction brake pads using hydraulic 
		pressure from how far the brake is pressed
On	On	regen braking as well as friction braking.  I'm not sure how 
		much regen braking when you press the button, or if it 
		increases as you hold the button

Now, we'll add the low rpm - like maybe 50 rpm or something

button	brake	description
Off	Off 	normal forward controlled by accelerator pedal
Off	On	assuming we're stopped below 50 rpm
On	On	assuming we're stopped below 50 rpm, change to reverse.  
		But the throttle works in reverse as long as you don't have 
		the brake pedal to the floor?
Off	On	assuming we're stopped below 50 rpm, after going reverse
Off	Off	back to normal operation in forward

This description assumes no regen braking without pressing the brake pedal and having that switch enable the regen/reverse button on the dash, or steering wheel, or whatever. That is what you meant by


I think we're getting close to a description that would be required by anyone who takes on the programming mods ...

Not sure that will work after thinking about it. I would like the gas pedal to work as a regen pedal once the reverse button was engaged. I doubt I'll want to hit the brake, gas, and regen button just to start regen braking. Maybe a brake signal before engaging reverse would be best.
