Given the way the hardware numbers the contacts and the way that code processes
them, the persistent id would go to the finger closer to the bottom of the
screen and the other one would get assigned an inactive id.

Similarly I think the lower finger would most likely determine the id of the
merged contact.  Not entirely certain.

Longer term tracking for a more satisfying and reliable tracking takes more
processing.  I think that's why the protocol doc suggests that userspace should
be responsible for hardware that doesn't track.
