On that aspect, wouldn't it make sense to have a user-side gesture
manager process with the same kind of status the window manager has?
It could generate synthetic events with new types such as zoom in/out,
rotate, etc, but also decide when to forward simple clics, drags...

Ultimately, it's where multiplayer experiments could be done.
