I havn't take a look at inputd, but since HAL is on every distribution and 
inputd on none of the major distributions (if I see this correct and 
rpmseek.com tell the truth ...) it's maybe the wrong attitude to say you see 
no obligation to fix this.

Btw. Can you tell more about the sysfs structure for the related uinput 
devices and also about the problem you have with HAL? Is there a special 
reason why HAL should grab these devices (If I see this correc HAL currently 
only handle some special keyevents as e.g. ACPI suspend/hibnernate) and what 
HAL should do with them?
