@Christopher,

On Thinkpad T450s, there is only one trackpad device in xinput, and it's a PS/2 
device.
So, Thinkpad T450s does not need this workaround solution.
The workaround solution is to block the PS/2 trackpad device.
That's why the workaround solution make your trackpad lost function.
I think I need add more condition in the workaround package.

I borrowed a thinkpad X250, the xinput is similar with yours beside the Wacom 
Bamboo 2FG and the touchscreen.
When I am typing, the 'tap to click' is disabled. So, I won't be interrupt by 
palm when I typing.
For your case, I have no idea what causes the "disable tap while typing" 
function fail.


Another thing, the "disable touchpad while typing" option is removed.
Currently, the actual behavior is "disable 'tap to click' while typing".
I think this behavior make sense,
i.e. Some gamers will use both the keyboard and the touchpad at the same time.

Title:
  "disable touchpad while typing" doesn't work

Status in OEM Priority Project:
  Triaged
Status in unity-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When selecting "disable while typing" under the touchpad section of
  the "Mouse & Touchpad" preferences, nothing changes, the touchpad
  stays active while typing. I can rapidly type multiple characters with
  my left hand and continue to move the cursor with the touchpad with my
  right hand.

  I can see from my processlist that syndaemon is running with the
  following options:

   2185 ?        S      1:31          |   \_ syndaemon -i 1.0 -t -K -R

  First, the -t option isn't what's expected with this setting, it
  should disable the touchpad entirely. Also, it doesn't seem to even do
  that correctly, as I can definitely click the touchpad while typing as
  well as moving the cursor.
