--- Comment #1 from Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer at who-t.net> ---
Not in libinput, sorry. Please request that this be added in your toolkit.

libinput doesn't have enough knowledge of the actual context of the
application, so unconditionally converting a long touch into a right click is
just a bad idea. It introduces delays and causes erroneous conversions to right
clicks when this shouldn't happen (e.g. selecting an element or interacting
with an element that requires a long touch).

This needs to be implemented in the toolkit (or the application directly) but
not in libinput.
