Oh man, there is no end of special-casing. 

When I assign a device
E: ID_INPUT=1
E: ID_INPUT_KEY=1
E: ID_INPUT_KEYBOARD=1
E: ID_INPUT_MOUSE=1
it gets keyboard and pointer capabilities. When I replace
ID_INPUT_MOUSE with ID_INPUT_TABLET_PAD which would be logical class
for device with buttons and no axis it gets tablet-pad capability but
loses keyboard capability. I suppose this is not documented anywhere,
right? ID_INPUT_TABLET* actually means ID_INPUT_WACOM_TABLET* and will
not work for non-wacom devices.

Is there no support for non-wacom tablets?

Thanks

Michal
