wacom is a special class of hardware and not essential to a working
system, even if there was to be a regression it would probably not be a
release issue and would be fine to deal with as a SRU, +1 from desktop

Title:
  FFe: xf86-input-wacom 1.0.0

Status in xf86-input-wacom package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,

  The Wacom X driver has a new Debian maintainer now, so the package has
  seen some janitorial changes to the packaging, plus a new upstream
  release.

  We currently have 0.39.0, 0.40.0 added some new device support:

  >>>
  xf86-input-wacom-0.40.0 jigpu released this Feb 03, 2021

  This release of xf86-input-wacom provides bugfixes and improved support for several Wacom products. In particular, the "pan" action now behaves more appropriately in relative mode and heavy multi-touch use should no longer cause strange touch behavior. This release also adds support for the softkeys which some Cintiq models provide, although additional work in XKB and the desktop environment is necessary for them to be fully functional.
  <<<

  Instead of listing all the commits between 0.40.0 and 1.0.0, a blog
  post explaining the 1.0.0 release might be more appropriate:

  http://who-t.blogspot.com/2022/02/the-xf86-input-wacom-driver-
  hits-10.html

  So in summary, the driver has been refactored to allow easier
  debugging and testing. There shouldn't be user-visible changes in it.

  
  I've tested 1.0.0 on an Intuos 5m, and it's working fine.
