Truecrypt/Veracrypt uses something interesting during the creation of encrypted volumes: it asks for the user to move his mouse in random patterns for extra entropy. Could this be beneficial when creating an HD wallet for the first time? See this:

Just an idea if someone is developing a wallet or if this could be implemented within existing wallets improving entropy.

There is already exist some kind like project. Bitaddress ; as u wrote bitaddress using mouse movement as random entropy.
