I had GNOME (rather than Unity) as my default desktop before upgrading to 18.04, and I strongly believe that my settings should have been respected rather than overridden to the installation default. Whatever the merits of the choice of installation default, it seems clear error to impose it over a previously existing GNOME installation.

My touchpad has hardware left and right buttons, and it is my understanding that it should therefore not default to "finger" mode but should instead default to "area" mode. I was not able to get two-finger secondary click to work in "finger" mode at all. The laptop is an Acer V3-574 and the touchpad identifies in dmesg as follows:
