It might be completely off your domain, but then why X series are
suddenly Ultrabook (tm) instead of simply ultra portable machines, like
before (when the X1 was the ultrabook).

It confuses the whole Xseries line, imho.

I'm pretty sure it brings inconveniences to non Linux users as well: as
I understand it, a lot of people stayed at Windows 7 (a bit like the
XP/Vista story), and I'm not really sure gestures are that useful in
general (but that's a personal feeling indeed).

In any case, thank you for taking the time to respond.

Something I'd be interested in, also, would be the brightness keys issue
with Windows 8 laptops (see
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D51231)
