when the clickpad is clicked. generally, I don't think there's a big use-case
for truly combining the motion, I don't think people intentionally move two
fingers. so having the concept of one touch being the pointer seems to be
right.

so it really comes down to getting the right movement when two fingers move and
one movement is unintentional and outside of the button area. That's where the
move combination is the simplest approach, and afaict this use-case only
happens during drag and drop. 

The only other case where there are two fingers on the touchpad is when one of
them is in the button area _waiting_ for a click. But that should already work
anyway.
