Modular interactive HUD

Pretty straightforward - Let the player use a cursor on their hud by holding a keyboard button, and let them interact with, drag, and resize HUD elements using the cursor. Let the player toggle individual HUD elements on or off to give more functionality on the HUD than could be practically displayed simultaneously. This system is very much akin to how a variety of popular MMOs have their UI set up, and would be invaluable to players that are not fond of static, bulky HUD elements but do not wish to turn off ALL elements with a mere toggle. This could be extended to the menu system, allowing multiple windows to be open and manipulated in tandem, like how Valve's VGUI system works in the pause and menu screens.

This system would also allow a whole new avenue of moddability, enabling players to potentially add and configure their own HUD elements, which would be extremely handy!
