Bug Description

I want to set both two-finger and bottom right tap to trigger right-click.

In GNOME Tweaks -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Mouse Click Emulation, these two options are mutually exclusive, so I can't do that.

I would suggest making these two options checkboxes, and getting rid of "Disabled" - the user simply won't check either of the checkboxes. By having checkboxes instead of the "checkmark" radio button selection, users like me would be able to trigger right click with both two-finger taps and by tapping the bottom right of the touchpad.

PS: is it worth filing bugs here as well, in addition to the upstream bug?
