If you think of a first-person 3D view which you can use the mouse to look around with, W/S for moving up/down and A/D for moving left and right, then you have the left and right mouse buttons free for forwards/backwards. Perhaps a combination of a 3D view and a top-down 'radar'-style view where you can see it from the more classic 2D view would make it more feasible.
It would take a long time to get used to (and probably to code) and the gameplay would probably be better original 2D-style, but I'd still really love to see shining danmaku fly past me in 3D leaving smokey trails which you could fly through. Could make good use of HDR too...

22 vs 22 LT Emerald Valley in Tribes. Stay alive for longer than 15 seconds if you can.
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams ... glitter in the dark near Tanhauser Gate. All those ... moments will be lost ... in time, like tears ... in rain. Time ... to reinstall Tribes.
