Someone should add tslib support to the main xorg server then ;-).

Qt/E 2/3 have a ton of other input issues beside this (e.e keymap problems) so the lack of merged tslib support is only a minor one and as you say, patches exist. IMO, calibration in the kernel would be a backwards step (especially when tslib can do more besides like filtering and hopefully in the future rescaling).
