Thank you Nicolas, I am very impressed.

My only feedback would be about cursor routing, which is a topic Samuel
and I have been discussing off-line a few weeks ago.

My understanding is that the way it's currently done is because we
cannot currently do better, but I think if we could we should.

More concretely, if kmscon supports input from a mouse, then I'd suggest
that cursor routing events are somehow translated to mouse clicks. In
terms of your doocuemnt I assume this would mean adding one more type of
events that BRLTTY could inject?

Seb.
