I prefer "not automatic" to an automatic that fails. I've set up a nice "Tablet/notebook" (Toshiba Z20T) with Debian and TDE. I use "Smooth Blend" as windows decoration with a 46 pixels button size. The icons are not the prettiest (I'd prefer "laptop" but they don't scale) but it works. I use "onboard" as virtual keyboard with a button in the panel to start it when needed. Onboard does not appear automagically but then it does not either clutter my screen when it wrongly "thinks" I need it as I've experiences with other virtual keyboards. Linux does not seem to have palm rejection, so I wrote a small tcl/tk app that let's me stop touch when I write (note that this requires an *active* pen, which anyway is the only thing that really lets you write correctly). Desktop icons are at 48, toolbar icons at 22. With these settings I use TDE on a touchscreen, and the Z20t let's you separate the screen from the keyboard and use it as a tablet ( *AND* the keyboard has my favorite track point :)) So, while there is certainly room for improvement, I'd say that TDE *is* usable with a touchscreen if you are ready for some compromises.
