Thank you! This is really useful, as I don't have any touchscreens around aside from SteamDeck developing this would be kinda annoying.
Tested on SteamDeck, and it works great (aside from lack of multitouch, but that's to be expected, I can deal with that on a latter date if at all).

Add Touch Event Handling
Description
I was using a Windows Surface Pro 3 and noticed that touch events were not being acknowledged. I searched the issues and found issue 19, which appears to be the same issue.
I have added support by handling touch events as cursor events. This allows everywhere where cursor events are being handled to automatically handle touch events in the same way.
Testing
To test this, I built the app and ran it on my Surface Pro 3. Upon doing so, I was able to use touch events and see that they were properly handled in the same manner as mouse events.
