Title:
  [Apps switcher] Visual feedback of user's finger movement needed
  throughout the gesture

  In Progress

Bug description:
  Right edge compound gesture has two phases. During the second phase
  all the recent applications stack together in to the apps spread.
  There is a second phase commit threshold value after which this
  stacking happens. Currently when this commit threshold has been
  exceeded user loses control over the gesture. There is no way to go
  back and the UI doesn't react to further finger movement to left. We
  want user to be in control also after the second commit line.

  RIght edge gesture progress is explained and broken into pieces in this spec:
  https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/document/d/1FC_-5yz5kPy_ZvTphaqxOgI5BPnALFbxRAO4eJkzlf8/edit#

  There is already a bug about reversibility (movement back to right)
  after second commit line (#1355284). So this bug is to fix the non-
  responsiveness after second phase commit line when user moves finger
  towards left edge.

  Steps to repro:
  1. Start right edge swipe
  2. keep finger pressed and drag to left until you reach the point when apps spread is formed
  3. keep still finger pressed and move finger towards left

  Current behaviour:
  No visual feedback

  Expected behaviour: 
  Applications should start moving to left and stack the way they do when they're dragged to left in normal spread use case
