@aks I've got a 10-point multitouch screen, and I did obvious and correct thing with that and wrote a virtual midi instrument that you can play with ten fingers. however, kwin apparently has a hardcoded 3 and 4 finger gestures that persists even if you shut off the effect of those gestures, so if you press 3 or 4 notes at once, my program receives two touch events and two touch cancel events as kwin tries to steal it and then do nothing with it.

@aks I'd like some way to shut that off that doesn't involve recompiling anything. Ideally some way a program could signal to kde that it needs exclusive control of the touch screen while it has input focus, but I think for the sake of baby steps a simple option for shutting off those gestures without disabling touch events entirely would be fine too, provided it's something that could be configured relatively easily.

@aeva i dont know anything about kwin but this could be made as a feature request on the bugtracker: https://bugs.kde.org/
