No it is not.  Type of tablet does not appear to be a factor at all.

Yes it is, it can repeatably bring down the whole xserver.

Please be patient while this is investigated.  I don't really consider
a high risk of totally pranging the xserver of many unsuspecting users
is on the whole a helpful thing to upload to the distro.

This is looking like it may even be a problem in the xserver itself,
but until we know more and have a sure workaround at the very least,
this isn't in a state to be distributed more widely than it already is.

Sorry.  Big transition to a new xserver ABI.  People who really need
reliable tablet support should probably stick to the older one for a
bit longer yet, or get involved with helping things along upstream.
