Android is surprisingly well tuned even out of the box for trackpad/mouse usage. And many interfaces are already tablet-optimised. I'm not saying it's amazing, but it wouldn't take that much work for it to be usable.

And with Android N that work takes a big step forward. By default any device have the ability to split the screen in two, and show apps side by side (apparently you can even have two Chrome "windows" up side by side, each with its own tabs). And if the OEM so wants, they can enable floating windows, making Android behave very close to that of a traditional desktop.
