My apologies for raising my head above the parapet without immediately being able to contribute a formatted patch, but I'm a complete virgin as far as git is concerned.
It's no problem.
I'm getting a great deal of grief here from an arthritic colleague with a selection of Elecom devices that he's bought so that he can use whichever is least uncomfortable at the time. He'd first like to thank everybody for getting the 0x00ff (DEFT) and 0x010d (HUGE) mice into the kernel, which he can confirm work well on 4.14. He's also got an 0x00fc (EX-G M-XT3DR) which I believe will be supported in 4.16, although I've yet to test that. He's also got an 0x00fd (EX-G M-XT4DR) which is the left-handed equivalent of 0x00fc, we'd very much appreciate it if somebody could add that ID to hid-ids.h, hid-elecom.c and hid-quirks.c.
I was made aware of this mouse only recently as well. I had plans to submit a patch for it soon.

This information seems correct and matches the data I recently collected on reddit[1].
Please let me know if there's additional information I can provide to help with this, and again I apologise for not providing a correctly-formatted patch. Knowing the user's fondness for gadgets, he'd not be averse to buying additional models for testing if he spots any affordable.
The only thing I would like to ask is for help testing the patch when I submit it since I do not own an M-XT4DRBK. I'll CC you on the patch so that you're made aware of it when it's posted. If you're unsure of what that would involve then don't worry, I have also found another person willing to test this mouse.
On list, cc not necessary.
The only thing I wanted to do before submitting a patch was to have a look at how the ELECOM PID defines are named. As of this moment the code has managed to skirt around the problem of having two mice of the same series with incorrect button counts and different PIDs, but this might not always be the case. However, there are also two models from the same series of mice (DEFT) which share PIDs. So I was still trying to work out how to deal with that in hid-ids.h but I think I'll post a patch with what I think would be the best solution and then see what Jiri or Benjamin say about it.
