Comment(by pgf):

 i think maybe we need to figure out the extreme sensitivity/jumpiness in
 this mode, and tune it down.  in particular, the pad is way oversensitive
 -- mine is ghosting reliably (responding when my finger isn't yet on the
 pad), and spewing data with constant, unmoving pressure on the pad.  (it
 doesn't do that when synaptics support is not enabled.)

 i'm seeing missing key up events at the EC level using EC debug.  i'd like
 to be comparing apples and apples though -- this is like comparing faucets
 and fire hydrants.
