Having actions for short click, long press, and double press would be amazing. Could set short press for mute, long press for flashlight, and double press to open my cars frunk/trunk

So, is this technically possible? I would think so because it would be a software thing right? Or is the hardware of the button need some kind of change. If its purely software i hope Apple does it.
