xinput can be used on the command line to enable or disable tapping, via
the "Synaptics Tap Action" property.  There are also properties for
changing the speed, sensitivity, etc.  See `man synaptics` and `man
xinput` for more information.

However, the bug report appears to be requesting a GUI mechanism for
adjusting these parameters, so I am reassigning this bug report to
gnome-control-center as a wishlist bug for requesting the gui dialog to
set them.

** Package changed: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (Ubuntu) => gnome-
control-center (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Low => Wishlist

** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
