for me personally its mostly the ability to use physical buttons to navigate instead of a mouse. the backplot is cool but could be relegated to its own screen mode with perhaps absolute/distance-to-go ("position" screen on fanuc for example). Offsets, both work and tool, should have their own dedicated screen toggled by an "offsets" physical button. with ability to use arrow keys to navigate the columns and enter values. physical heavy duty tactile cycle start and stop buttons are a must for powerful machines, as sometimes time is of the essence when its plunging toward doom.

Chris thank you very much for the quick response. Indeed hal pushbutton has built in led (I missed that part my appologies)

Now, where do I entre the name of the led to be able to turn on/off the led with a hal pin

HAL Widget PushButton can have a LED controlled by a HAL pin.
Actually IndicatedPushButton can too, it just doesn't have the HAL pin controlled by the button.
