That's exactly what it does. A touch report has to contain the
contactID field. And each touch is at least in one collection (some
devices send one touch per collection, others only one collection for
the whole report).
The idea is when hardware makers introduce several input mode for
their device, they has to put them in different collections.

The logic behind the last_field_index and last_slot_field are only for
multitouch. So it does not matter if the contactID comes first or last
in the collection, it will set the right index/field.

Cheers,
Benjamin
