Glad you asked. I agree it is a neat feature. But, Linux driver
doesn't share any code with Windows driver. Do you have time to
implement it?  I can test and merge your patches to the codebase.

I reporduced your problem.  I am going to look into the code and fix it.

You are right.

Modetoggle means the device's motion mode (relative to absolute or
vice verse) will change when you press the button.  Since pad doesn't
send motion event (doesn't move the cursor), modetoggle has no effect.
 If you want to modetoggle stylus, you need to assign it to a stylus
button.
