Due to the current usage of X's windowing grab/ungrab features it is impossible for clients to grab certain types of events, this could be used for data sanitation (keyloggers...).

But Xinput would still be preferable, as it seems to have better developer tooling

This is being considered though we are currently focusing on making the WM more usable (moving windows/resizing, title bar...)

However it shouldnt be too hard to implement later on due to how the event system is setup.
