Public bug reported:

Hi guys, I noticed the horizontal swipes in the interface behave in
different ways meaning different things, I wish we could have common
positive/negative meanings on the directions they are applied.

On snap decision calls, a left to right swipe has a positive meaning, answer the call.
On indicator message, a left to right swipe has a negative meaning, remove the message.

I guess the same applies to apps, contact app does left to right with a
negative meaning, to remove the contact.

Lock screen can be swiped away any direction, but on the edge demo we
recommend doing a right to left for "removing" the lockscreen.

A right to left edge swipe has a meaning of switching context, like
swiping it away (maybe negative meaning or we should ignore the case?)

Can we come up with a consistent behaviour? What you think?
