Qt 4.6 and list of all graphic tablets supported

[Adam]

I just discovered, that the new Bamboo also has gestures. if the  
professional tablets will also get this feature, it would be cool to have  
it working in krita.

but probably it's rather something, that should be implemented in kde libs  
or in qt.
