Some pointing devices actually report absolute position as part of their
packet stream. Some examples:
- Synaptics Touchpad
- Various PS/2 touchscreen input drivers
- Any USB HID-compliant device can
The first two require a "knocking" protocol to unlock the absolute
positioning data. Only the third has built-in support in Windows.
