Yes, xorg-synaptics handles ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR, I sent the patch for it.
The width of the fingers is used only for the two fingers emulation and
the palm detection, both of which are broken on image sensors as the
width is never reported.
I'm normally using hid-rmi for my touchpad which never sends
ABS_TOOL_WIDTH and everything seems to work correctly. Same for
synaptics with this patch, although it seems that the pressure drops
drastically when there are more than one finger, so this must be taken
into account when defining the threshold values. I'll double check that
everything is correct for 'z'.

It works perfectly with some adjustments:
/* When multiple fingers are on the TouchPad, the width is encoded in
* X, Y and Z */
if (sgm->w == 0 || sgm->w == 1) {
sgm->w = (((sgm->x & BIT(1)) >> 1) |
(sgm->y & BIT(1)) |
((sgm->z & BIT(0)) << 2)) + 8;
sgm->x &= ~BIT(1);
sgm->y &= ~BIT(1);
sgm->z &= ~BIT(0);
