Are you requesting:
1: "if I touch the right corner of the screen, send an "A" keypress" 
or 
2: "if I press button "A" on my gamepad it should simulate touching right 
corner of the screen"

For (1) I do not think another app can intercept touches without being the top 
screen, as that would violate security (i.e. read typing a PIN).

For (2) I have not seen any API calls that would allow an app to simulate a 
screen touch event. I can imagine that it may be a security issue as well, 
although not as grave as (1).

I was requesting 2, so that apps/games that only use touch screen to control, 
it would be possible to control with the gamepad.
I don't know if it's possible, but it would be great.

I can see that the Sixaxis app  does this now.
The downside is that you need a rooted device because Android will block 
applications from doing it.

Maybe as a option for rooted devices.
There are more apps that have only some features for rooted phones.

This is how the sixaxis app works for the Droid Bionic at the moment.
