Arguably the way we talk to joysticks on Linux is just broken. I
think it really would make much more sense for joysticks to go

- From a design point of view yes, but are there any other Linux

or /dev/input/event*. I'm worried that we end up being the only
application using a poorly tested codepath.
This here makes me doubt that going through the X server is a good
idea:
