Many touchscreens support touch-keypad .
Open the definition of the TOUCHSCREEN_TSC2007_WITH_KEYPAD, you can
open the support of the touchscreen's keypad .
We can add the support of the touchscreen keypad in the driver.
In this patch , add the ts_key_pos array to determine the position
of the key's X. And the ts_key_sensitivity can use to detemine the
key's sensitivity. You can modify the ts_key_pos array for you own
touchscreen keys . And modify the ts_key_sensitivity for you own
key's sensitivity .
If you want to modify the ts_key_map, change the position of the
keys ,too.

No, this kind of data transformation does not belong to a driver (or,
really in kernel). It is in no way TSC2007 specific (any touchscreen
could be used in place of TSC2007 here).

Do it in userspace and either loop the events back into kernel (after
parsing) via uinput or feed directly into your framework.

There is even code out there already which does exactly that:
