I think it does matter, because if we apply the factor "late", it's applied to
the maximum acceleration, too, which is bad. I don't think we should focus on
mimicking the behavior of evdev + X; rather we should figure out how to make
this device work nicely with libinput. And here we have the fact that the
device delivers strange/unusual raw data.
But you're right, I havent't had time to actually try yet.

Ah, I didn't know that, thanks. I'll try.</pre>
