The workaround <https://phabricator.kde.org/source/kwin/browse/master/libinput/connection.cpp;2e371f9634a7d8ca70ce19ce8a97d5825c29d423$485> in KWin reads in the X mouse acceleration directly from the config file.
  
  
  I tested under weston Xwayland's cursor and key mapping can be configured. So it does make some sense to use X11 backend on all window system for now. Remove the check.
