So if I understand this correctly, instead of trying to help Bryce and
other xorg programmers fix the real problem (plug and play input
devices in xorg) we're just throwing the issue around and mitigating
instead?

I'd like my wacom tablet to work, I'd also like not to have X warnings
about it not being plugged in. I'd also like my tablet to work as soon
as  I plug it in and not have to restart X every time to get none
mouse functionality.

Is there a ticket for this specific bug instead of the symptoms.
