After last week's changes to how xorg configuration works, but I still
have some problems with the touchpad. Essentially, the extra-config
seems to have no effect.

1. The Tapping option does not work.

2. The HorizontalScrolling option does not work. Strangely, the
documentation[0] says that "HorizontalScrolling" *disables* horizontal
scrolling. I've tried it both ways.

3. The DisableWhileTyping option does not work. This actually never
worked, even before the change.

I've attached my config.scm file.

Hi, Luther, I've brought back touchpad tapping with such config. Need to use gdm-service-type instead of slim-service-type   
 (services (cons*
 (service xfce-desktop-service-type)
 (service dhcp-client-service-type)

 (modify-services 
 (remove (lambda (service)
 (member (service-kind service)
 (list ntp-service-type avahi-service-type
 bluetooth-service network-manager-service-type)))
 %desktop-services) ;end of remove lambda services

 (wpa-supplicant-service-type config =>
 (wpa-supplicant-configuration
 (interface "wlp2s0")
 (config-file "/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf")))

 (gdm-service-type config =>
 (gdm-configuration
 (xorg-configuration
 (xorg-configuration
 (extra-config 
 '("Section "InputClass"
 Identifier "touchpad"
 Driver "libinput"
 MatchIsTouchpad "on"
 Option "Tapping" "on"
 EndSection")
 )))))

Need to use manual or maybe it is a bug.   If it's not a Guix bug, then the problem is probably with the string that we pass to extra-config. The documentation for that is at xorg.conf[0] and libinput[1]. If that's not what the problem is, I have no idea what to search for in the Guix manual.
