you should be using MatchDriver here and rely on the system to assign the right
input driver to the right device. Not that it really matters, but it's the
recommended approach.

except for the Tapping the other three are set to the defaults for your device.
You don't need the options, they have no real effect.

because X lacks any protocol for pinch (or gestures at all). you'll have to
wait for wayland to have this supported, sorry, should've made this clear
earlier.
