                OS: All

As of 0.6 we support software buttons on touchpads. Apple touchpads don't have
software buttons but use the clickfinger behaviour instead; they don't have
markings and the OS X behaviour is clickfinger as well.

Some laptops have no markings (e.g. Lenovo Carbon X1), making it hard to judge
where exactly the software buttons are. Thus it makes sense to provide
clickfinger behaviour on non-Apple laptops (configurable, default off).

Lenovo marketing video shows that the windows default here is to have software
buttons (about 1 min in).
