Dimmer switches are capable of the double tap on and off. This sends a different message out of the switch called Fast ON and Fast OFF. If you are managing home automation with a PC and software, you can use these messages as triggers for events -separate from the regular on/off messages.
The HUB should be changed to process these actions as well. THis would allow switch users to trigger a scene from a regular dimmer switch - Like all lights on/off for when you are entering or leaving the house.
If the API is also changed, services like StringiFy and IFTTT could use the Fast ON/OFF messages to trigger automation flows.
