Bug Description

Due to the "input deck" the Framework 16 has a "USB" internal keyboard. This throws off heuristics for detection of keyboards to turn off when you select disable touchpad when typing.

This is fixed in upstream libinput with the following change:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libinput/libinput/-/commit/566857bd98131009699c9ab6efc7af37afd43fd0

As that's not yet part of a release yet and it's a trivial change, could it be cherry picked for Ubuntu to give a better experience to Framework 16 users?
