For many years *every* user of a Huion/XP-Pen/... tablet needed to add an xorg.conf entry because we didn't match against all tablets in the xf86-input-wacom driver.
Because configuration was available and easy, it was never reported upstream which means we never noticed and fixed it for everyone there.
This is fixed (upstream) now that I actually noticed.
And a fun side effect: if configuration weren't that easy we'd have had a bug report about this years ago.
