Can you elaborate how the spice display channel comes into play? On a physical machine you just have input devices with no notion of display. It's up to the windowing system to process input events and handle multihead. Why does a pv tablet tie itself to a display channel?
You have two qxl devices, each linked to a spice display channel. The spice client will open one window for each channel. The mouse position is a triple consisting of (x, y, window/channel).
Only the guest knows how it configured the displays, so only the guest is able to create a correct pointer position out of this data. So the X-Server would combine this data with its virtual display configuration (basically adding the display offset to the coordinates), then send this as event to the X clients.
What about mouse wheel (aka z axis motion)?
It's covered. That are really just button presses at mouse protocol level (buttons 4+5). We can add them to the enum to have fancy names for them, that is just the sugar on top though.
