I think this is a very good idea. I find for example on OSX the way to get the notifications tray from the right with two finger "edge swipe" very useful and intuitive way to interact with the OS. So definitely would consider this option once we're implementing those features.

I don't know if we would be swiping with two fingers or one (one finger is more likely to be confused with another action that the user wants to perform, like moving the mouse cursor). Functionality can be the same or very similar to what we are doing on the phone: right-edge to switch between apps (or bring in the side stage), left edge shows the launcher, bottom edge would depend on what the app wants to do with it, and top edge can show system settings.
