Screenshot of the options in my trackpad settings
DESCRIPTION
On KDE Plasma 6.6.6 on Ubuntu 26.04, the touchpad settings options do not
include one to select the lower right corner of the touchpad as a right-click
button. This was raised as far back as 2024 (see for instance:
https://discuss.kde.org/t/wayland-no-physical-middle-and-right-click-on-touchpad/5988/5),
but there seems to be no resolution as yet to the fact that the option (visible
on the screen-shot in that post) seems to have gone missing.
The attached screenshot (no_right-click_option.png) shows what I am getting.
There are two lines across the middle, which suggests that some section is
missing, but I'm not sure whether that's relevant to this issue.
The output of sudo libinput list-devices is as follows:

Notably, tap-to-click is listed here as disabled, while in the touchpad

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the touchpad settings.
2. Confirm that there is no right-click setting option.
OBSERVED RESULT
As above.
EXPECTED RESULT
An option to allow me to set the lower right corner of the touchpad as a
right-click button.
