Comment 1 for bug 72114

Hi, better late than never I guess. I'm rejecting your bug report since this not considers a bug. However you can write a feature specification for this at Launchpad's feature section. First check whether the idea is already registered ([WWW] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+specs), and if so, contact the specification's drafter about your ideas. Otherwise, you can start writing a spec yourself. [WWW] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeatureSpecifications

Untill it gets implemented, you can use this blogpost to fix the issue yourself: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/09/20/disable-touchpad-temporarily-when-typing/
