Diversity is the key here - many of us will have wildly differing use cases and requirements out of the platform, so having a range of options to support the functionality 'out of the box' is a positive move forward.
The control console setups I have seen used for larger commercial scale UAV (Ascending Technologies and Microdrones) are pretty big due to the number of data link antennas, controller status indicators, batteries and fpv screens. I am using iPad mini 2s on my Inspire, so the stock arrangement is fine for me, but were I to use a full sized iPad or Sammy tab I think I'd want a more substantial console arrangement.
The support and weight distribution aspects are very important and shouldn't be overlooked also - strain and fatigue in your elbows, forearms, wrists and shoulders will not help you maintain the fine levels of motor control required in your fingers and thumbs for well controlled flight operations over extended periods of time.
