Note that putting "touch" in the UA is somewhat different than

what we are encouraging people to do. Using HTTP-headers is the way
you do server-side capability testing, comparable to using JS and
API-detection to do client-side capability testing.

Isn't this what we want to avoid? For the user with a laptop that
supports touch they are going to get thrown into touch centric (mobile)
interfaces on web sites. I have had this happen on the tablets I test
with thanks to the touch interfaces

This is a misguided simile. Once upon a time, the touch interfaces were actually only present on mobile devices. This is never going to be the case for the Touch token. The Touch token won't be present on mobile devices; it's unclear to me why you think anyone would treat it like the touch interfaces.
