Forgot this part. I don't think we should have any duplications of protocol like this. We'd make the API twice as big for no significant wins. If one doesn't want higher frequence relative motions, then one doesn't need to get the relative pointer; and if one doesn't care for absolute motions, then one can just ignore them. They will be fewer of them anyway, since wl_fixed_t can't represent all the events that can be represented via the double fixed type.
