Description

### What Happened?

When testing on a touch screen, I noticed the multi-touch gestures (e.g. for switching workspaces) don't track my fingers 1:1; instead they seem to track as if I was using a touchpad.

Note this may be an issue in Touchégg, but I thought I'd start here. @JoseExposito probably knows more. I can also upload a video when I can get to it if that would help demonstrate.

### Steps to Reproduce

1. Have a touch screen
2. Three-finger swipe sideways on the touchscreen to switch workspace
3. Watch how the workspace moves under your fingers faster than your fingers

### Expected Behavior

Multi-touch gestures are 1:1 when using the touch screen

### OS Version

6.x (Odin)

### Software Version

Compiled from git

### Log Output

_No response_

### Hardware Info

Dell Precision 5530 with touch screen
