I thought this had been put on the wish list, just over a year ago:

There's a real mixture of PTT methods out there - WSJT can use a serial
port, WSPR can now use CAT and serial port, HRD can use CAT and serial port  
JT65-HF can use a serial port - to name a few.

The lowest common denominator and simplest option for all these is the use
of VOX in data mode. It would be nice to swing back and forth between voice
and data without having to worry about whether the VOX is on/off.

You could tie up another serial port for PTT in most instances - but that's
just more cabling. There's a tendency, in this shack at least, to run more
than one application at a time - so there would be contention with a serial
port across multiple applications.
