--- Comment #1 from Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer at who-t.net> ---
yeah, it's a side-effect of the data we see when pressing a button. As you
press down, your finger flattens, causing the center of the touch to move as
seen by the touchpad. The software buttons are a dead zone for that reason,
otherwise we see slight pointer movements on every button press/release,
causing users to miss the click targets.

There's probably something more fine-grained we could implement but meanwhile
we've just been telling users to use one finger for click, another one for
pointer movement. That is likely to feel more natural and provides for better
control than having to push down while moving.
