Ah, I see. I think the problem is that the text editing widget is still not compatible with XInput (the mouse actions to select text inside the box and drag it around don't all work properly); presumably it never will be, since GTK+ 2.x isn't evolving much anymore. So we need to disable XInput when we are in the process of editing text and the cursor goes into the text box area. Disabling XInput causes all devices to report themselves as the Core Pointer -- and then the touch-as-handtool option probably kicks in. I am a bit confused about why it kicks in already when you try to add your first text box, I would have imagined that it would hit you only the second time around, but anyway -- the truth is that I don't know a good way around this. Once you are editing your first text box, there is just no way of knowing whether the next button event comes from pen or from touch (because XInput is temporarily disabled)...
I'll keep it in mind as something to try to fix someday, but right now I probably won't postpone the release just because of this issue.
