The reason I had to look is because the (default) functionality does not
work reliably at all:
$ doas wsconsctl mouse.tp.tapping=1
mouse.tp.tapping -> 1,3,2
Single taps are always detected reliably and deliver left mouse button
clicks, but tripple and double taps for middle and right mouse button
clicks work are recognised so poorly that I first though multitouch
support wasn't there at all.
That's not the case though: two-finger srolling just works smoothly and
pondering the touchpad with repeated double or tripple taps does
deliver respective clicks eventually - so it's really just the tap
support needing some love.

Here's a better one.
Feedback? OK?
