I altered the value 'false' into 'true'. Expected that it wouldn't ignore the
touch events anymore.
...
In this desktop I intend to visit my serverpage with the Chrome browser in
kiosmode, Actually, I configured the session with an auto startup of the
webpage (Moodle) in kiosmode. Then it looks like a normal page. There is just a
huge difference between the usual way of scrolling and moving the page (like
with the RD client), I can't move the page with my fingers, like an average
webpage does on my tablet. When I use the keyboard and mouse there are no
limitations, everything works fine, except for the touchscreen. Is this more
clear to you?

I think there is a misunderstanding here with respect to touch events. Within
the remote desktop session, everything is still a mouse. There are no touch
events as far as the remote desktop session is concerned. This is not because a
flag is set that tells Guacamole not to pass through touch events; it is
because there are no touch events sent by Guacamole to the remote desktop
whatsoever. The browser within that remote desktop is not going to be aware
that you are interacting with it using touch.
To allow mouse-driven remote desktop to work through touch devices, Guacamole
implements mouse emulation via touch events. This allows you to click, use the
scroll wheel, etc. despite not actually having a mouse locally:

The traditional panning, pinching, etc. gestures will affect Guacamole's
display, not the applications _within_ that display.
