I would like to note that, with the latest updates to GNOME:
1) xserver-xorg-input-synaptics is mostly non-functional, insofar as
adjusting settings and having things work the way they used to
2) The worst of my complaints about xserver-xorg-input-libinput have
been resolved. Things are not as fully functional as they were with the
synaptics driver, but they are usable, subject to some fiddling with
hidden settings in dconf. The clickpad behaviors on my hardware still
default to the "wrong" setting, but I can now change that via the hidden
dconf settings.
What is most noticeably missing for me in the libinput driver now is the
"momentum" scrolling.
For anyone else that comes across this, the hidden settings in dconf to
change the clickpad behaviors can be found in
/org/gnome/desktop/peripherals/touchpad
