Hi Federico,

I saw your touch input rotation work[1].  I was looking at this too,
and I think it needs to be done more generally (in gnome-desktop rather
than g-s-d), and with XInput (rather than calling out to xsetwacom).
I've got a patch to do it here:

http://launchpadlibrarian.net/51043158/101_rotate-touch-devices.patch

Is there an upstream Gnome bug for this work?

Thanks,

-Kees
