Not only does this require system level applications like gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-control-center to have code to specifically handle it, it will also break enumeration for the users (shouldn't button A be before button B which would be before button C?). This should be fixed in the driver. libwacom is a place to define things that drivers cannot, not to work around hardware differences like this.
