a huge problem that makes me still stick in X11 is the lack of allow make an app receive mouse events instead tablet events.

Wayland by design needs the clients handle tablet events otherwise it would be broken unlike X11 and Win32 that only make usage of tablet events when you enable it.

This could be a problem for some apps (mostly proprietary ones) that use GUI toolkits (very older versions of Qt or GTK) lacking proper support of graphics tablet protocol.

You mean like this?

Screenshot of Plasma's System Settigs for drawing tablets. An arrow points to a radio button that enables the pen to act like a mouse.

that you mentioned is "relative mode"

my issue is easy to reproduce. Open Chromium in ozone wayland mode using a graphics tablet and you will see clicking and hovering doesn't work because chromium wayland doesn't implement wayland tablet protocol yet

Right. Maybe submit a bug report?:

https://bugs.kde.org/

It sounds like the kind of issue the folks of the "We care about your Input" goal would want to tackle.
