You can use Autohotkey scripts which are already supported.

It's something as simple as -

send {a down}{j down}
sleep 500
send {a up}{j up}

Something like this is definitely coming eventually, yup. Dedicated buttons are always better though; I had my cab set up like that for a while and it was really annoying because it happened accidentally all the time. But yes, definitely planned.
