Very strongly disagree with this!!!!

The tablet should control the seat's pointer. Users do not want to see two
different cursors in most cases. If they do then they can configure the
tablet to be a different seat.

It does not matter that tablets (sometimes) are absolute devices. When the
pen enters the pickup space for the tablet, the cursor will jump to that
location. The fact that the user may have moved it with the mouse
beforehand makes absolutely no difference about the need to support such
jumping.
