Hmm... how about a variable `device-function-key-alist', which maps
device names and classes to the corresponding function key?
The code to read events could then be changed to add such a function key
when an event is received for the suitable type of device.
For example, pixel-scroll-precision-mode could add ((class mouse)
. coarse-mouse) to that list, which would make events coming from a
mouse report themselves with the fake function key `coarse-mouse'.
Then, the command to scroll with interpolation could be bound to
[coarse-mouse wheel-down].
Or Lars could specify ("Name of footpad device" . footpad), and bind the
appropriate commands to [footpad a], [footpad b] and so on?
WDYT?
