Bug Description

Moving the cursor to the gesture focus point would prevent bad event interpretation on touchscreens. Many applications perform different actions for a scroll event depending on where the cursor is on screen. For example, if the cursor is over a tab in the gnome terminal, scroll gestures will cycle through the open tabs instead of scrolling the content.
