I been wanting to figure out what I can improve, there is methods of activation
that people recommended like double clicking for lock instead of one click, or
also hold and only when you drag it "latches" onto lock mode. I also been
meaning to add support for constant scrolling after you move the mouse a
little, like how autoscroll behaves in most software.

I also mentioned in the MR or in the kwin chat (don't specifically remember) to
add a spec on Wayland for compositors to know if an input was used or not as
most frameworks already have that feature implemented on their event system.
The other alternative is to add a new key on XDG Settings portal for enabling
autoscroll on software that supports it.
