So, I'm planning to make the absolute point mode default very soon after

Amazingly I'm against this change (At least for a global change anyway).
I have a few requirements which should at least be considered before
changing the default to stylus on any target (I see no reason this
cant be a per target descision). (in no particular order)
1) the default WPS is fully touch enabled
2) There should be a touch enabled sbs but I don't see this happening
and it isnt a totally major thing)
3) if FM enabled, the FMS needs to be touch enabled (Ideally there
should be a standard cabbie fms, but this needs people)
3a) ditto rec screen
4) screens which arnt converted auto-configure themselves for grid
mode (with a splash saying "changed to grid mode")
5) When in grid mode, a simple overlay is drawn onto the screen to
show the boundaries. This has two reasons, 1) it helps new people see
what is happening, and 2) it makes people more likely to fix those
screens because it will look shit. This overlay can easily be done in
lcd/viewport_update()

- I covered 1, 3, 3a and 4 with doing the change to force people to finally
do the work needed. Neither of them applies to RaaA.
There must be a translation issue here, Forcing others to do the work
is by no means at all considered covering these issues. You mention
RaaA here but not in your first post. You specifically said you want
to do it for all touchscreen targets.
With "covered" I didn't mean "fixed" but "I'm aware of this and this is
how I proposed to deal with it".
I promise you the needed work is not going to be done any time soon,
possibly not even with changing the default.
What targets need work? I suspect it's only the cowond2, since I got an
OK from the maintainers of the Ondas.
Best regards.
