a similar script to set keyboard layouts is used in recent fedora and
ubuntu systems for Xorg 1.5 ... it will make it easier to keep the
calibration data out of the .fdi file so teh .fdi would only need to
tell the device which driver to use and nothing else ... as i asked
before if you think that this .fdi file would have to go into the driver
package, why do you do similar stuff for wacom based
tablets/touchscreens ?

imho pointing out the needed driver for a HW is the responsibility of
hal while applying settings should likely be part of the driver package
itself am i so wrong here ?
