My experience with sushi is that ginger is just for cleansing the palate
between pieces. You don't mix it with the piece of sushi or sashimi you
are eating, so I suppose chopsticks are fine for the ginger. I don't do
wasabi, but it probably is used the same as the soy in that you never
soak the sushi with either. A simple, light dipping, which is easily
achieved with fingers.

Sashimi is never supposed to be eaten with the fingers.
