I am fine with the plan as long as we have a plan. I have a question about the definition of "stuff that fixes actual issues". You know I am still holding the workaround I made for fixing the hotplugging device enable/disable issue. Before we get a barrier from X server that tells us we are getting the last configured input device (are you plan to do that?), we can only work on one device at a time. I know if hotplugging is provided through udev, all tools could be added insider xf86-input-wacom, if all tools are configured with the same options. What about hotplugging based on HAL? Do we care about that case? So, basically, I need to know if you would consider that patch as fixing actual issues or not. It is not a perfect solution. But, there is not way to make it perfect without getting help from outside of the driver. It does narrow the race condition. Ping
