You wouldn't want to use OpenBSD on a trouchscreen computer if you had one? Where windows can be moved or resized depending on how many fingers you use to touch them? I would. I already have a machine capable of this but even if I wrote a driver for its wacom touchsceen today I could not pass all possible input events to OpenBSD's input subsystem. Looking forward, such devices will probably become the norm in general purpose computing. So I believe this work is important. The only downside I see here is that Ulf has been working in too much isolation, and that it's proabably too late for the result of his work to go into the tree for the 5.9 release cycle. I hope it will go into the tree in one form or another during the 6.0 cycle. And I didn't take time for testing Ulf's changes yet either, to be honest. Not because I wouldn't want to, but because I've been too busy with other things.
