Pressure, buttons, tilt and other data is not available through the
standard input interface, these have to come from the extra xorg driver.
Ah-ha --- I saw ABS_PRESSURE in the evdev source without looking close
enough and jumped to the wrong conclusion.

The code is looking like it's a part of the wacom driver, so they should
know about it since they accepted the code.
Do you have a pointer to where this code is? e.g. is it in a mainline
kernel already, or in some git repository somewhere? (I must be looking
in all the wrong places, or, probably, I don't know what I'm looking for.)
This kernel driver is where future efforts should be directed, no?
