Description
The Linux input event system reports events with timestamps attached. It would be nice to pass those timestamps through to Elixir. Here are some reasons:
- If the timing between events is critical (like for a double click), then the Linux timestamp is the best one to use.
- Frameworks like scenic forward events using message passing. Processes that collect events from multiple places (like the text entry collector for an on screen keyboard where each key is a process) run the risk that events are misordered. This is probably low since computers are fast, but event timestamps would disambiguate the order.
- The timestamp is available, so why not pass it up?
