You will want something like this for pens and all other tools, as it is
possible to use them in a relative mode (very common if the tablet is
smaller than the screen). I think rather than typing this to the type of
tool, you need to tie it to whether relative motion is being used or not.
Not sure where in libinput or wayland that would be, though.
