Thank you Christopher, it ended up being a misconfiguration. Unchecking
the "Disable touchpad while typing" checkbox has returned the clickpad
to a much more useable state: two-finger scrolling works, two-finger-
click for right-click works, click-and-drag works. I am confident I can
configure the soft button area if necessary. The enable-rightbutton.sh
script didn't work, complaining that the property name "Synaptics Right
Button Area" doesn't exist. I discovered that there is instead a
"Synaptics Soft Button Areas" property on my clickpad.
I'm closing the bug, since it appears to be a configuration issue rather
than a system bug. Thanks again for the pointer.
