The use case would be to use button 4 of my tablet or someting in GNOME
for enabling/disabling touch&gesture, and button 3 or CTRL+button4 or
something else in GNOME for switching between absolute and relative mode
via xsetwacom.

Of course, this could be done inside the driver. In that implementation
I'm interested too. Actually more then via xsetwacom. Attached you will
find some scripts that (at the moment) do not do anything, except
showcase the notification and document the use case.
