[Bug 1534239] [NEW] bottom edge tab selector doesn't work with mouse

 

Public bug reported:

if you connect a mouse and the browser is in single column mode, there
is no way to interact with the bottom edge to view/switch to other tabs.
I expected to be able to click on the hint to open it, or at least be
able to click and drag with mouse but neither succeeded.

We should look at using the BottomEdgeHint component in the sdk as that
correctly deals with handle mouse events and making the hint visible
when a mouse is connected to see if that could be a possibility.
