 Multiple taps on a central scene switch beyond single and double tap are not sent by the Hubitat. If you make use of the triple or more click capability of some switches that is not currently working. This is a limitation in the Hubitat and so I cannot say when or if it will be addressed but since I use that functionality I will certainly be pushing for it from them. It does appear that the Hubitat itself supports more taps than just the double tap it is just a matter of them making this information available to the MakerAPI protocol and then I can support it as well. Multiple taps on a central scene switch beyond single and double tap are not sent by the Hubitat.

-Devices with more than the 2 buttons on a regular paddle switch do appear to be working. The third "config" button on the Innovelli switches does come in as a tap on button 3. (though no double tap is supported on it) So I expect that central scene controllers with multiple buttons will also work normally but I have not yet tested this. At least they should work normally for single and double taps, more than that are probably not supported yet given the above limitation. 
- 
-Virtual units may not be controllable from XTension yet but they will send their value and state changes to XTension. I'm not sure yet why some appear to work normally and others do not but will get this sorted out for the release. 
- 
-Sensor type devices that should be controllable, for example door locks or garage door controllers may not be controllable yet from XTension. If you have a device like this that does not work properly please drop me a note and we can gather some data to help make this work properly. 
- 
-The support for location events, control of modes and control of the "HSM" or security features of the Hubitat are completely untested as of this first beta. If you are using these things and they do not work as expected please drop me a note and we can collect some more data to make it easier for me to properly implement them on our side. 
- 
-Since this is a new Hub and a new plugin and I have not built a large system with it yet there will almost certainly be other issues and limitations with specific devices and I cannot yet speak about those. Overall it appears the Hubitat has very good support for the more standard ZWave and ZigBee devices. Please visit their support community to verify that any other more exotic devices you might use are supported and working before you dive in.  
  
 The Hubitat and it's MakerAPI protocol are moving targets as of this moment, new firmware updates may break things, or fix things or add or remove features. I do not have control of that but will of course do everything I can to keep up with the latest upcoming changes. There may be frustrations ahead but by doing some integration of this device you will definitely help get it as reliable and feature complete as it is possible to be. The Hubitat and it's MakerAPI protocol are moving targets as of this moment, new firmware updates may break things, or fix things or add or remove features.
