Public bug reported:
The new Unity configuration allows the mouse to move beyond the side of
the screen which is calculated as 'pressure' which then activates the
display of the normally hidden Unity bar.
The problem is for Wacom and other tablets which have absolute
positioning. there is no way to go beyond the side of the screen since
that's the side of the tablet.
It's possible to turn off the hidden mode, but it'd be nice for unity to
detect that the xinput is coming from an absolute pointer and for it to
change modes to something which will work for these devices.
