11/13: New
12/13: New
13/13: New

It is not possible to do filtering of touches when they don't match a synaptics
gesture without being able to specify the event timestamps. For example, imagine
you perform a two-touch tap, but you hold for too long. If we send the touch
events that made up the tap all at once, the tap would look instantaneous. I
don't want to even think of making a time-based queue to replay events... If the
xf86 API allowed for the input module to set the timestamp of events, it might
work, but the API is frozen and it would require a lot more thought to be sure.

The last three patches ensure we don't send touch events when any synaptics
gestures are possible.

This patch series is a prerequisite for clickpad support, so it's no longer an
RFC. It should be merged if there are no issues. It can be pulled from:
