After trying around a bit more... If we intend to use the emulator in
the future we might want to tweak which input devices are exposed the
guest system. RIght now there is a single odd abs-relative-touchscreen-
mouse hybrid. For odd reasons it was treated as touch screen in the past
(we didnt really differ with the android stack: everything not a key
event is a motion event). With  libinput it will be seen as a mouse that
either emits absolute or relative coodinates. So we will lack the
capability to simulate touch input.

Additionally the relative mouse mode works very badly. It seems to skip
a lot of mouse movement or they are scaled down?

For either of the problems we might have to change the emulator window
code. Which I believe we take from here:

Title:
  Ubuntu-emulator is broken on rc image 3

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Incomplete
Status in mir package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in phablet-tools package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  STEPS:
  1. Flash with sudo ubuntu-emulator create --channel ubuntu-touch/rc/ubuntu rc-test
  2. Wait for it to build
  3. Run with ubuntu-emulator run rc-test
  4. Starts up but the mouse never moves meaning you can't leave the first page of the welcome wizard

  EXPECTED:
  I expect the emulator cursor to follow the mouse cursor and be able to click on things

  ACTUAL:
  Emulator cursors stay in the top left preventing movement.
