I'm not sure I understand this question. Do you mean utouch-geis should talk to the kernel of the host on which it's running to determine the capabilities of local hardware as an alternative to querying the X server if that choice is not available at compile time? That's possible as an add-on, but the changes in this merge would still be required.
This change is not targeted at Ubuntu. It does not need to get in to natty. It is for other downstream consumers of utouch-geis.
