Title:
  "q" / "1" key is hard to press because half the key counts as edge
  swipe

Status in Ubuntu Keyboard:
  New
Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The left-most key(s) on the onscreen keyboard can be difficult to
  activate because the input gets interpreted as the beginning of an
  edge swipe instead of a keypress.  It seems like about half of the "q"
  key is allocated toward edge swipes, which can make it difficult or
  slow to enter a 'q' or '1' symbol.

  This issue does not affect right-edge keys, only left-edge keys.
  What's different?  Could we reduce the thickness of the edge area to
  improve keyboard function, and still retain reliable edge swipe
  behavior?
