evdev for mice

[Pavel Rojtberg]

I dont know if its already to ask (again) for it, but have you already 
considered using evdev for mice?
How to enable additional mouse buttons is a question I regularly have to 
answer, and now I wonder if the "fix" could be adapted.

for evdev all you need is:

Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier  "Configured Mouse"
	Driver      "evdev"
	Option	    "CorePointer"
	Option	    "Phys" "usb-0000:00:02.1-2/input0"
EndSection

the number of buttons and the ZAxisMapping will be set automatically.

speaking of my MX510 mouse it allows mapping of all buttons(including 
window swithcher) and fixes a bug with sending too many events using the 
cruise control buttons.
