        What level of application code is exposed to device naming?
Surely the vast majority of code in Krita is completely agnostic as to
where the event is coming from and only responding to an event type. The
configuration would only specify a map of device+device-event ->
internal-event (eg: (“logitech usb mouse” + “button 1 down”) -> “eraser
down”), and the rest of the code in the system only cares about the
latter event (“eraser down” in this case).
