If the introduction of multitouch means possibilities of unexpected input then I think the real question is "what changes will need to be made to this software so that nothing unexpected happens". It's not whether the app needs functionality, rather the question is "does multitouch introduces changes in input that might affect current program behaviour?"

If not, then ur right... the scope of applications that will require changes might be a much smaller umbrella than I was thinking.
