I'm not particularly in favor of adding semantic between ABS_MISC and
ABS_MT_SLOT. We already did that once with the ABS_MT_* stuff, and the
problem comes from devices showing several axes, not really mapped
(like joysticks). These axes are all mapped to ABS_MISC, but the input
core function map them to ABS_MISC+N. This way some joysticks show
multitouch axes and are treated as such, whereas the axis are just
regular absolute axes. (not sure I am clear enough... :( )
Currently, nothing is done in X or in Wayland to detect these false
multitouch devices with a large number of absolute axes. But if we
keep a hole between ABS_MISC and ABS_MT_SLOT, we could add an
heuristic like:
"if all the axes between ABS_MISC and ABS_MT_SLOT are available, then
ABS_MT_SLOT does not mean multitouch, but ABS_MISC+6."
Cheers,
