Title:
  DirectionalDragArea lets a long press event through when a drag is
  detected

Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I recently build a branch of lp:webbrowser-app with the latest code
  drop for DirectionalDragArea from lp:unity8. The branch is there:
  lp:~osomon/webbrowser-app/update-dda.

  The DDA is used to detect a bottom edge drag over a WebView component,
  and display the tabs view accordingly. This works well, but often when
  a drag is detected the WebView under it gets a long press event, thus
  triggering the selection mechanism that it implements.

  According to Daniel with whom I discussed the issue prior to filing
  this bug:

  > Yes, the recognition parameters (and algorithm) were changed a bit.
  > So it's perfectly possible that what you consider a long press (don't
  > know how many milliseconds of pressed are needed for that) can happen
  > before the DirectionalDragArea reaches a decision on whether the gesture
  > is a directional drag gesture or not.

  The threshold duration for a long press to be detected by the WebView
  is 500ms.

  I’ve rebuilt my branch with DIRECTIONALDRAGAREA_DEBUG set to 1, and
  here is what I’m seeing when observing the issue:
