shouldn't you test for absinfo->minimum anyway? or does the kernel guarantee
that 0 is the minimum for distance?

yes, please. DOUBLETAP for hovering would trigger things like two-finger
scrolling in some clients, not ideal.

should be fine, we've treated BTN_TOUCH as signal that at least one touch is
down. in the wacom driver we use it for proximity info, the rest just never
had to worry about proximity, so it's most likely just unhandled.
