Is HID over i2c something new, only found in newer 'ultrabooks'?

If there is anything I can contribute to, let me know. I'm not a kernel 
dev with any C experience, but I am a developer using Linux 10+ years. 
The least I can do is test the bunch :-)

That's fine, of course. Is there a way for me to follow progress on this 
issue, e.g. bug tracker? Do you want me to take action?

Again thank you for your time.

Wouter
