<pre>This property is a generic constant acceleration factor to be applied to the
trackpoint's movement. The original idea was that this could be a generic value
that can be used by other input stacks.
Realistically, the only way to *measure* the value is to check with something
that moves the pointer on the screen, and that something is libinput. So now
measuring the const accel depends on libinput's pointer acceleration mechanism,
but that changes behaviour based on the value of const accel.
So shipping this in systemd is not good, we need to ship this in libinput
instead.</pre>
