(sorry for deleting history, posting from the Gmane web interface)

Perhaps the best solution is simply to punt grouping input devices to
udev (so that users can write custom rules if need be), and say that
all input sources share focus with fellow members of their group.
This might be compilicated by the desire to move input devices
between groups, though, and before long we end up with something
rather like XInput 2.

I personally think that it would be a *really* good idea to bring Peter
Hutterer into this, seeing as he has literally done this for years, and
certainly has a good idea of where the pitfalls are.
