--- Comment #2 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
Thanks David, that makes sense. Re-titling accordingly.

FWIW it's not just about FPS games; most games involve some mixture of keyboard
and cursor input and this feature is problematic for all but the most sedate in
pacing.

My current favorite is Endless Sky
(https://github.com/endless-sky/endless-sky), which is primarily
keyboard-based, but selection is mouse-based. When I'm piloting my ship with
the keyboard often I want to quickly click on a visible ship, which doesn't
work with my laptop's touchpad when "Disable while typing" is on.
