Agreed, though treating it like other activities (walking, running etc) gave me
the thought that maybe there are exercise classes out there somewhere in
'double tapping'.

We don't actually have a good way of handling this at the moment, but it's
definitely an 'event' in IIO parlance rather than a modifier of a channel type.

It's irritatingly non general, but perhaps an event type is needed for
gestures with some abuse of the event code format when one turns up to allow
us to encode the type?

Could do it in userspace, but we probably ultimately want an in kernel
consumer interface for IIO events, and do the translation in a input
bridge using that...

Certainly bridging buffered data in userspace didn't turn out as neatly
as the in kernel version.
