Bug description:
  Activating the long-press event on the Dash is often difficult,
  because the slightest amount of movement will turn it into a swipe
  event.  Especially when operating the device one-handed, it's very
  hard to keep your thumb still enough to activate the long-press.

  Can we allow some about of "wiggle room" so that a swipe isn't a swipe
  unless it's moved some reasonable distance?
