I'm a fan.  I've been running this on evdev and synaptics (I did the
synaptics conversion myself from before you did it, but I assume they're
pretty much the same), and it doesn't seem to have regressed anything.
Xephyr is still broken in that it doesn't seem to be sending out
KeymapNotifies, but that's nothing new.
