Yes, someone else mentioned that off list...

Yes, that looks useful.  It would be a good if we had a way of
identifying the device being attached so that I can disable the trackpad
if, specifically, a mouse is attached not a keyboard or even usb flash
drive.  I have had a look at usbdevs and usbhidctl but they don't seem
to be suitable.  I guess I could grep the dmesg for the attach but that
feels a bit sub-optimal...
