Hi Henrik,

When a three finger hold is performed on top of a window belonging to an 
application that supports greedy interaction, the gesture triggers 
greedy interaction for that specific application.   When an application 
enters greedy state, it can either: a) make all of it's windows greedy 
b) make some of it's windows greedy c) make an area of a window greedy.  
Performing the greedy gesture a second time on top of _any_ of the 
application's windows will switch off the greedy state for that 
particular application.

Also when a application becomes greedy, the specific windows or areas 
that become greedy are briefly highlighted (however we havn't yet 
designed this visual effect).

cheers,
John
