How to use Vive Trackers in UE 5.2 and later versions

The OpenXR API itself is designed to abstract away any device specific information. It only allows accessing tracker poses by role. The Vive tracker OpenXR extension only specifies a few allowed role names.

Khronos is unlikely to allow direct access to devices by name, but it might be a good idea to ask them and HTC about adding more roles, and especially about the multi-user use case.
