That's just homebrew, though I do have an idea. Do you think someone savy enough could actually program the library into a backup loader so it acts as a wrapper for the loaded Wii title using a cIOS?

Pretty sure WiiFlow is a backup loader.

Yea but I would assume it only works for the loader with navigation unless you're booting a GC game through Nintendont. I haven't tried it though since I haven't used a backup loader in a long time.

You should try it, they may have updated it to work as an alternate to the wiimote.

This could require a mod in IOS56 and IOS57. I'm not sure if the d2x team still around, could be totally awesome though.
The other alternative of patching game by game through ocarina seems too messy.

Ocarina would probably be the way to go, unless someone really wants to muck about with it IOS side. Either way, it's more work than most people would be willing to do to use a slightly better controller on Wii games running on a Wii/Wii U, especially since Dolphin seems to work with it just fine on PC. Overall, it would be great, but seems like a lot of work for something relatively small.

From what I've read or rather haven't read, IOS does not/cannot handle bluetooth stuff.
If that's true, that's rather unfortunate, though I think Ocarina would have been the best way to do it, anyway. Still, it doesn't really matter as I highly doubt anyone would be willing to put forth the effort.
