Nice to hear! I wrote a test and will post it on the mailing list. However, 
there is a problem with it and all the other tests of thumb detection:

Thumb detection is triggered by setting the pressure to 75. Now this pressure is 
high enough to trigger palm detection as well. That means that all the thumb 
detection tests currently succeed, no matter if thumb detection works or not.

To avoid triggering palm detection, a pressure of 51 or lower is required. But 
this value is too low to trigger thumb detection on all devices.

Should we somehow disable palm detection during the thumb tests?

Best,
Friedrich
