Title:
  Tablets don't work with Unity bar (new mouse strenth bug)

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The new Unity configuration allows the mouse to move beyond the side
  of the screen which is calculated as 'pressure' which then activates
  the display of the normally hidden Unity bar.

  The problem is for Wacom and other tablets which have absolute
  positioning. there is no way to go beyond the side of the screen since
  that's the side of the tablet.

  It's possible to turn off the hidden mode, but it'd be nice for unity
  to detect that the xinput is coming from an absolute pointer and for
  it to change modes to something which will work for these devices.
