It is not.  Unless I don't understand something.

With -usbdevice tablet mouse cursor/position is kept syncronized
without a need to grab mouse/keyboard.  This is very handy and
easy.

Ok, with full-screen it's probably not necessary, but I'm not
sure.

In any way, I didn't notice any slowdown or significant difference
in CPU usage with -usbdevice tablet (which I often forgot to add)
and without.  Maybe a few percents, not more.
