Does it make sense to handle events and state in the X evdev driver and xinput? yes, but I don't think button events are the right method for this. in the XI2 development cycle I played around with a SwitchClass for this purpose but dropped it for XI 2.0 for lack of time. IMO a protocol addition for this class would be the best solution.
