Possible to detect if trackpad is being touched?

Was thinking space you be a nice key to use as mouse click.
If we could detect if the trackpad is being used, and make space act as mouse click, it would not conflict with anything.. right?

As you know, you can do it by Multi-touch extension if you are not using Magic Mouse.

(If you are using Magic Mouse, Multi-touch extension also works on Magic Mouse.)
