We do still use a maxed out major axis as a signal for a palm in the touchscreen logic, but I'm not too concerned because if that axis is maxed out, the contact should probably be treated as a palm anyway... I'm more concerned with this affecting our gesture detection for touchpad. It looks like this change would cause all contacts to reported as some percentage bigger than they are currently. Can you give me an idea of how big that percentage is?
