What's the point of relative valuators on the driver-side then?
Seems over-complicated to me.
I could listen to RawEvents, but those are only sent to root windows, which
makes checking if they are meant for my window a little tricky.
Do you think it is easier to modify Xorg itself to send relative events or
should I interpret the absolute values on the client side? Overflow detection
is possible, but not very nice as the values are doubles...
Clearly, the right way would be to report relative events.
I will start looking into Xorg where this addition of relative events takes
place.
