That's what I started from. Just added a report line. But this confused user space.
A touch packet reporting that a finger does not touch the pad together with width reported for same finger gets xorg-synaptics to ignore it.
E.g two-finger scrolling becomes unusable. xorg ignores "untouch" event and when fingers touch again, cursor jumps.

So finally this solution looks clean and safe to report width only with abs.

I sent some versions of these to linux-input mailing list and to Mathias, but forgot to add Dmitry.

I added a similar patch to my ppa, with backport of focaltech driver for Ubuntu 3.19 kernel users. There are >500 installs. 
No issues reported.
