Qt 5.5 contains support for it, so it could be used. But I don't see much advantage taking it into use -- the current code is pretty simplistic.

It's also at the wrong layer: the compositor is responsible for talking to the hardware (using evdev directly in the current case, using libinput as you're proposing) and propagating those events to clients.
