It actually wouldn't be too hard to do mouse acceleration outside of X. Just build it into gpm, and have X read fake pre-accelerated mouse data out of gpm's repeater fifo.
Putting it directly into the mouse driver isn't that hard either. However, it will be a bit harder to add run-time adjustment of the acceleration parameters, because XInput doesn't do well at communicating arbitrary information between clients and XI drivers. Since I've been digging through XInput in my spare time lately, I'll look into updating accel support. Meanwhile, it wouldn't hurt to add accel support to gpm.
