I don't use Wayland, and I have yet to test the behavior on Wayland.

OK – I guess it makes sense for me to wait for Plasma 6.3 to roll into my
Debian Testing installation before I reopen this feature request. However, the
previous whitelist (i.e., a list of devices that should not disable the
touchpad) approach worked really well around the problem of devices
inappropriately reporting themselves as mice – which sadly exist and definitely
cannot be educated to report in differently.
