if they're not in the database, you'll get those questions for the lifetime
of the tablet :)
Also note that libwacom_new_from_path() has a fallback option, you can get a
generic tablet from it and then proceed as normal. gnome-settings-daemon
already uses this.
I also expects that the settings configuration tool under wayland will
rely on the actual capability of the devices. This way, even if the
tablet is not registered in libwacom, we will still be able to show a
default configuration UI.
I really believe the registering in libwacom will be just to have a
prettier interface, not a requirement.
