Mark you are absolutely right, and Keith, PLEASE do not prevent X server
wakeup by any input device.  I have many touchscreen displays without
mice or keyboards on remote X Servers which depend on being awakened by
a touch.  If you arbitrarily insert code which prevents this you will be
creating hell on earth for me.

    //Is that really desirable?//

    //For me, moving the mouse has always been the most natural way to
    wake//
    //up the screen.  And I can imagine that touching the screen is the
    most//
    //natural way to do it on a device with a touchscreen.  Such devices//
    //might not even have keyboard./
