Well still because of bsc#987703 which is supposed to be fixed starting 4.8.3.

On xinput I can of course slow the trackpoint down, but still it is linear,
either full speed or 0, even if it should have pressure control.
Ie. xinput set-prop 13 'libinput Accel Speed' -1.0

More problematic is the trackpoint buttons pressing. Really the evtest reports
just one click but quite often the result is simply marked text.
