Nothing > bad should happen. I am not entirely sure. The entire purpose of having widht for palm detection is to filter palm from true finger events. So if we only have the width info on the first slot, it would be useless IMO.

Go ahead and include my changes in your 2/2. It's better to have a consistent commit.
