Title:
[mir]can drag from all four edges simultaneously
Status in Ubuntu UX:

Bug description:
I'm not sure whether to call this a bug or a feature, but on my mako
and flo I can activate UI controls from all four screen edges
simultaneously and drag them around independently. This is fine so
long as I don't "let go" or otherwise finish any actions, but as soon
as something activates, results are somewhat unpredictable.
This puts six different UI layers all onscreen at the same time, in varying
states of being active:
- dash
- home scope
- current app
- previous app
- indicator menu
- bottom-edge menu(s)
With a few more fingers, it may also be possible to interact with
these, like, toggling indicator settings or launching apps or
activating menu items. I'm not dextrous enough to do that without
help though.
Multitouch is great for typing or zooming or perhaps some other
gestures, but I'm not totally sure it should be able to control
multiple unrelated UI elements at the same time. (some apps might
want many fingers, for implementing a piano or something, but it's
awkward at best as a primary UI feature)
