The feature to turn on and off body parts in VaM is awesome but having to go through menus to do it makes it very tedious to use. I added a feature to Alive v33 that allows doing all that faster and easier just by shaking the controllers. When a shake is detected, that body part you're holding toggles between On and Off. 

This helps with immersion, having to select controllers and go through menus likely ain't it for most people. Now if you want the model to drop a hand for example, you just shake it a bit and it's done. It also makes posing in general, both in VR & desktop, a bit easier and faster.

As someone suggested, for the hands I made it so that when they go to Off (relaxed mode) the fingers also reset to a natural state to quickly get rid of hand pose morphs.

This is interesting and I will try it. I still like the posing menu section as I use a ActRandom plugin, that works well with it. The body parts I select move randomly. I hope you left it in as well. I will give this a try. I have to say I am a little behind in versions, I did try v32 in my new install, but still use v31 in my main install version. And I have to admit it is incredible. I only really use 4 other plugins now, in my main preset, and 2 of the 5 are yours.
