I did some more research on this. Disable while typing is controlled by syndaemon. Disable while typing defaults to on and there is no way to change it through the GUI. The Wiki is wrong and system should support configuring all features of the touchpad through the GUI

-i enables "disable while typing" and 1.0 the length of time to disable it for. Man syndaemon for details
