** Summary changed:

- two-finger clicks only register as one finger, unless two-finger scrolling 
immediately before
+ two-finger clicks only register as one finger, unless both fingers are very 
close together

** Description changed:

- Two-finger clicks only register as one finger, unless two-finger
- scrolling immediately before.
+ Two-finger clicks only register as one finger, unless both fingers are
+ very close together.
  
- This is very odd because it's only multi-finger clicking on the clickpad
- that's affected. Using two fingers to scroll is always flawless. However
- using the same two fingers to do a click (right click) only works at the
- end of a two-finger scroll. If your fingers have been stationary since
- touching then two-finger clicks only register as one finger (left
- click).
+ For a long time I found two-finger clicks in quantal to be very
+ unreliable and unpredictable. Now I realize it only responds to two-
+ finger clicks if the two fingers are very close together. This is
+ counter-intuitive and not behaviour I've encountered before.
