Public bug reported:
This could probably fixed through configuration, but it should work
automatically. Testing Ubuntu 18.04 beta, the touchpad has no special
regions for scrolling or anything.
By default in Xorg-based Ubuntu, top right corner of touchpad is middle-
click (mouse button 2), bottom right is right-click (mouse button 3),
and right side is vertical scrolling. For a while the bottom edge
defaulted to horizontal scrolling, but that changed in 17.10 or
something.
I'm aware that new touchpad interaction methods have developed, like
dragging with two fingers anywhere on the touchpad to scroll or
something. But people may not know this, or their touchpad might not
support multitouch.
(The Xorg-based settings for touchpad remain when switching back to Xorg
like with the Metacity Flashback login option.)
