Actually, I don't have to filter multiple touchpoints in the server.
The protocol is copied from the wl_touch interface and can handle
multiple touch points just fine. It can be up to the client to enter a
denial mode on a second touch down until they are all up.

Likewise, if the user puts first touch down on a right device, and a
second touch down on a wrong device which results in a invalid_touch
event, it can be up to the client to decide whether it accepts the
first touch or not.

I'll just have to make the client deal with those.

Do you see any problem with this?


Thanks,
