Hi,
Also, if I may ask, why would the Edit Mode long-click be a hardcoded gesture that I cannot enable or disable if I can just right click and Enter Edit Mode that way, or Alt + D for my keyboard shortcut?
Yes. It just happens when I hold left-click (which is also my pen click) for one second and it thinks I want to modify widgets based on that (thus being, Edit Mode). Krita was only pointed as an example for an app I use alongside, the Long-click is indiscriminate to any program and it still happens anytime I happen to press for one second. It's also indiscriminate whichever distro I use with KDE as its DE. I'll take a look at using xev and synclient and learning how to use it.

NB: this is something for which you may have to ask on the calligra or krita (devel) MLs.
Is long-press the normal trigger for edit mode or if not, what is? Some mouse/trackpad drivers (which can be in firmware) have hardcoded gestures which you cannot modify. I had a tablet PC where the trackpad has hide or shade window(s) coupled to a 2-finger gesture I'm used to making for other things. On Linux I was able to avoid that by using xev to determine what events were being generated. I don't remember exactly how I used that info to solve the issue; either via xmodmap or via KDE's global shortcut mechanism. In your case synclient may also offer a solution, or whatever equivalent exists for the touchscreen driver.
