Thank you for your bug report, would it be possible to try with
reverting only the wacom package to the non hwe version and see if that
resolve the issue?

Title:
xserver-xorg-input-wacom-hwe-18.04 pointer skippy
Status in xf86-input-wacom package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Situation:
Description: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
Release: 18.04
Desktop: XFCE/Xubuntu
Installed HWE kernel 5.0 and HWE xserver.
Attached Wacom tablet "Bamboo Fun CTH-661" in "Relative" mode via
xsetwacom (behaves like a mouse instead of setting pointer to
corresponding tablet position on screen).
Issue:
When setting the pen down fast, the pointer skips notably, as far as 10cm on
my 27" display.
Setting the pen down softly it does not occur, but the usual fast
motion I apply when using the tablet it occurs a lot.
It seems like in certain conditions, like going through the threshold
at which the tablet recognizes the pen the value changes too quickly
an overflown value goes into the X axis, but that's wild guess.
Reverting to all: regular 18.04 kernel, xserver and xinput-wacom
drivers the issue does not appear anymore.
Tablet has been working fine for years. HWE is first kernel/X/input
combo that jeopardizes it.
