Title:
  unity: synaptic lockeddrags not enabled

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On the trusty installer desktop, double-tap drag works to reposition a
  window, but upon lifting the finger the drag halts immediately. This
  is very inconvenient when the user wants to drag a window further than
  the distance available on the trackpad. On Synaptic devices locked
  drags can be enabled with options "Synaptics Locked Drags" and
  "LockedDragTimeout". Another solution would be so switch to triple
  touch drags for repositioning (like OS X), this is preferable as there
  is only a single gesture, so the user's intent is always clear, and
  the drag will never timeout inadvertently.
