When using A key to get different camera views in each view mode, panning with the joystick hat button is painfully slow. Using mouse key panning (hold space and move mouse) is a lot faster and smoother.

Any way to incorporate mouse view into the hat view function so don't have to give up flight control while reaching for the mouse?

(would be an added bonus to be able to use mouse view toggle on/off while using hat button)

On an older MS FF2 joystick I have set a button to toggle mouse view on and off. Just set that button to Shift-O and it works well. One hand on the mouse, the other on the FF2.
 
Hi
You can play with the camera settings to speed it up paning
try adding these lines if they are not in the camera sections of the aircraft.cfg
PitchPanRate=100
HeadingPanRate=100
panacceleratortime=3

you can play with the numbers a bit try
PitchPanRate=60
HeadingPanRate=60
panacceleratortime=3

the settings are for panrate 0 to 100 deg per sec
panaccel is 0 to 30 default is 5

there is also a zoompanscalar which changes the pan scalar at different zoom levels, so you can be more precise as you zoom in but I tend to level that at the default of 1
