--- Comment #4 from Zamundaaa <xaver.h...@gmail.com> ---
The issue is deeper than that - like many input features, this isn't actually
something done by KWin, but by libinput. So this would kind of require
implementing the feature in KWin first (which should be quite straight forward,
but I haven't tried).

If we had that though, we could do something about this in many cases. I can
think of two approaches:
1. don't disable the touchpad if we detect the focused app is in the game
category (in the .desktop file), or the Wayland content type is "game" - and
you're not typing into a text field
2. only disable the touchpad if we know you're actually typing into a text
field. This is trivial with Wayland apps, not sure it's feasible for X11 apps

Neither is completely bullet proof, but I think with option 1 we could at least
make the issue less severe.
