<div style="margin: 8px 0; padding: 0 12px; color: #74777D;"><p style="padding: 0; margin: 8px;">I had looked. Without bringing in further behavioural changes it makes things worse.</p>
<p style="padding: 0; margin: 8px;">You then need to change screens to be in sync, and that one gets used a lot.</p>
<p style="padding: 0; margin: 8px;">Then instead of having one piece of code refer to name when they mean description, we have dozens refer to description when they just want a simple readable name.</p></div></div>
<div style="margin: 8px 0; padding: 0 12px;"><p style="padding: 0; margin: 8px;">So, I assume you're talking about output mapping for touch devices. If that's the case, we could set the udev 'WL_OUTPUT` property on the input device, but nobody does it. Alternatively, we could follow libinput's documentation [1] and use something else.</p>
<p style="padding: 0; margin: 8px;">My main concern about this code is that we start mixing identifiers, names, and descriptions, which makes code more difficult to work with and reason about.</p>
