Looks cool, but:

May I ask why that is not done automatically?

Because I forgot about it and saw it when I wrote the documentation - and when I had done all commits and uploads. This will change when I figured out why my device returns always the first finger - as long as we see this behaviour, this info is useless anyway, besides it returns something else on someone's device...
Since T-Bone was waiting for this update, I did not want to delay it.
So this is actually a known bug, but this is just a WIP snapshot anyway...

It's not that big of a hurry, but thanks a lot for caring about me

I appreciate it
