Comment(by mmlr):

 It's actually fully intentional on my side that these devices aren't
 picked by their usage but by their capabilities. Mouse-similar devices
 with two axis is good enough to drive the pointer. That absolute mode
 isn't supported and therefore joysticks and the like are currently
 problematic is just a missing feature, it doesn't mean that these devices
 shouldn't be picked up per se.
