Title:
  Multitouch support in evince is half-baked

Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am using an Apple Magic Trackpad with my Ubuntu system (Oneiric Beta
  1). Evince seems to recognise some gestures, but even basic
  functionality is not working properly.

  * Scrolling with a two-finger gesture works, but there is a lag each
  time before scrolling actually starts, i.e. one starts the gesture,
  and only half a second or a second later the scrolling starts on the
  screen. This happens with both my internal touchpad, as well as the
  external Apple bluetooth trackpad.

  * Rotating works, however the zoom level changes in an unpredictable
  way. In fact, after repeated rotating, my document is as small as a
  stamp!

  * Zooming gestures are recognised, but the screen is not redrawn. Only
  after clicking and scrolling in the UI, the document is shown at the
  new size.
