Bug Description
When tap to click is enabled, a quick press of the touchpad's physical button will be interpreted as two clicks: one click from the tap, one click from the button. Instead, a virtual click should not be generated when the touchpad button is being pressed.

Thanks for reporting this problem, but I don't seem to be able to reproduce it on my XPS 13 running the kernel version "3.2.0-31-generic #50+kamal9~DellXPS x86_64".
I'm testing by running the following command from a terminal window: xev | grep Button
Clicking the physical buttons always yield only one ButtonPress event followed by one ButtonRelease event when I release the button. Same for tapping the pad: just one ButtonPress/ ButtonRelease pair is observed. I'm not seeing any extraneous events in any situation.
@Dylan, do you see different behavior when you do that xev test? When you say "a quick press of the touchpad's physical button", do you just mean "click the button once"?
