Thanks Vesa for start working on it.
Can we enable "edge gesture restriction mode" by default for Full Screen Application, and provide API that allows disable it (for example for Ubuntu Gallery)?

Title:
  [Navigation] Launcher, Status bar and app switcher reveals too easy
  for Full Screen applications

Status in Ubuntu UX:
  In Progress
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I love playing games. One of my favourite game is "Cut the Rope". It
  is full screen game.

  Unfortunately during playing when I swiping left/right/top edge, then
  launcher/status bar/app switcher are revealed (see attached screen
  shots).

  I would like to propose improvement:
  For full screen application, enable double edge swiping.

  Use cases:

  Status bar - top edge:
   1. Run full screen game eg. Cut the Rope (there is no status bar)
   2. First top edge swipe. Result:
       - Status bar appears.
       - Game is not interrupted.
       - Pressing/swiping any part of screen, except top edge swipe, hide status bar.
       - Pressing status bar hide it.
       - Only second top edge swipe reveal settings.
       - Every press and swipe, except top edge swipe, is transferred to the game, and status bar is hiding
   3. Second top edge swipe. Result: The settings are revealed.  as for standard (non full-screen) mode.

  Launcher - left edge:
   1. Run full screen game eg. Cut the Rope
   2. First left edge siwpe.  Result:
       - Only half of launcher appears.
       - There is no dim.
       - No application changing.
       - Game is not interrupted.
       - Pressing/swiping any part of screen, except left edge swipe, hide launcher.
       - Pressing on launcher hide it.
       - Only second left edge swipe reveal launcher.
       - Every press and swipe, except left edge swipe, is transferred to the game and launcher is hiding.
   3. Second left edge swipe. Result: The launcher are revealed and it dim application. As for standard (non full-screen) mode.

   App switcher -right edge:
   1. Run full screen game eg. Cut the Rope
   2. First right edge swipe.  Result:
      - Small bar appear on right side.
      - There is no dim.
      - There is no screen transformation
      - No application changing.
      - Game is not interrupted.
      - Pressing/swiping any part of screen, except right edge swipe, hide App switcher and app switcher is hiding.
      - Pressing on bar hide it.
      - Only second right edge swipe reveal App switcher.
      - Every press and swipe, except right edge swipe, is transferred to the game.
   3. Second right edge swipe. Result:  Reveal an application switcher that shows all your recent apps and lets you choose between them. As for standard (non full-screen) mode.
