            Bug ID: 90528
           Summary: Add thumb detection
           Product: Wayland
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: ASSIGNED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: libinput
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
            Blocks: 90526, 90527

For a thumb press on the T440s I get an ABS_MT_PRESSURE minimum of 100 to 110
(range [0, 255]), with the first one or sometimes two events being in the
80-100 range. Finger data is in the 60-90 range.

On an X220t, the thumb pressure is all over the place. This touchpad is quite
small, so the only way to use a thumb here is to only partially touch the
touchpad, so most thumb presses are actually in the 30-60 range.
Finger data is in the 50-90 range.

Based on those two touchpads: what may work is having a zone on the touchpad,
similar to touchpad buttons to label a thumb (or at least increase confidence
that it is a thumb).

We may need to limit thumb detection to certain touchpads over a specific size.
