My thoughts exactly.

The tablet-shell client is useless without the tablet-shell plugin.
We still build them both by default, and if you make the extra
effort during configure to disable it, might as well not build it.
This more of a consistency fix than anything practical. The client
didn't cause me any trouble.

It was also getting installed even if you specified
--disable-tablet-shell, and that was odd.
