Hi Henrik,

Unfortunately, this is not working. We have bad devices that present either:
- a null logical_maximum (some Stantum do) -> the value 1 is assigned
to maxcontacts, and the device is turned into a mono touch....
- an obviously wrong value (with respect to the current state of the
devices) -> Quanta devices report 255 there.... and they support only
2 touches....

And of course, 3M decided to stop sending 60 touches on their recent
devices: we have here a 0x506 device that present a contact_count of
max 60, a maximum contact feature of max 60, but whatever I'm doing,
it does not want to send more than 10 touches....

Cheers,
Benjamin
