Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

As first discussed in https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/380126 the new default settings in
the karmic alphas disable touch to click and other settings which on
many laptops are essential for user to be able to comfortably and
efficiently use their laptops. Many laptop touchpads have been designed
to rely on feature such as touch to click and as a result due to factors
such as their physical buttons can be painful or nigh impossible to use
otherwise. Whereas some users may prefer the feature off, for the vast
majority of users it useful or even essential and considering the
touchpad is the point of physical interaction for users we have most
control over we should continue to make it as exceptionally usable as it
has been in past versions.

I certainly could not do without it and will not be using my touchpads
clunky buttons to submit this bug report :-)
