Public bug reported:

Expected: Touchpad settings available in Mouse & Touchpad Settings
dialog

Actual result: Touchpad settings missing entirely


Details:
The touchpad on my Dell Ultrabook (Latitude E7470) functions mostly. 

The settings for the touchpad are not available at all in the Mouse and
Touchpad settings (see http://i.imgur.com/YRGiOrj.png).

Two-finger scrolling works as expected except it's using "Natural
Scrolling" by default and there is no way to change it.

xinput list does not display a touchpad at all:
