Title:
  [meet ubuntu] welcome tutorial omits switching/closing apps

Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  Fix Committed
Status in The Unity 8 shell:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The welcome tutorial is a great quickstart for new users, but it omits two important features:
   - How to use the right edge to switch between running apps.
   - How to close apps (swipe left edge across, hold app icon a few seconds, tap the 'X' which appears over it).

  Otherwise, the right edge is presented as nothing more than a way to
  unlock the welcome screen (which isn't a lock screen), and it can be
  very difficult to figure out how to close apps.  Many apps don't have
  any built-in way to quit, so this standardized method should probably
  be mentioned.  Closing apps, in particular, is not very discoverable
  as-is.
