Jason, I've been holding off until your latest patches before I looked in
depth into xf86-input-wacom to get rid of the unwanted button press for
touch pad.  Now that I'm digging into your patches (specifically, 0004), I
see there is feature mismatch in WcmEvent() between the two X input
drivers.  I'll need to study that more and see about aligning and/or porting
your patches.

I do have one initial question.  Are you using Capacity=3 as a method to
disable the unwanted button click from wcmUSB.c still?  Or in other words,
are there any values one could set Capacity to via xsetwacom and then see
that button click come back?  I've not tested it but Ping leads me to
believe that Bamboo P&T is not accurate enough such that the Capacity
threshold logic would work.

Assuming Bamboo P&T can not correctly support Capacity threshold feature,
I'm wondering if following in wcmUSB.c:

                                if (common->wcmCapacityDefault < 0)
                                        MOD_BUTTONS (0, event->value);

wouldn't be better some version of:

                                if (common->wcmCapacityDefault < 0 && !(a
bamboo P&T))
                                        MOD_BUTTONS (0, event->value);

and then remove your related parts of your patches that are setting Capacity
to 3.

I can only provide at most comments on patches 0001, 0002, and 0005 until I
understand the differences between the two X drivers... so I'm off to do
that first.
