1) Indeed it should only. The problem is that the touchpad on a macbook apparently is mapped to the same thing as USB mice are on a "normal" installation. There is probably a way to check if the device is a touchpad though - which should be implemented.

2) I think it is a good thing to have it enabled by default. It should probably be tweaked a bit though. Better hear macbook users about how it works for them, though.

3) I'm not really sure when mouseemu is needed, but definitely worth asking about/looking into.

Actually, the most important thing woth this delay is probably to avoid accidental touchpad clicks. Movement probably won't hurt much, but clicks can be quite annoying. Perhaps mouseemu should simply ignore clicks in the delay, but leave movement alone.
