In Gnome settings, turn your touchpad sensitivity to fastest. Actually, the behavior is seen on the extreme slow end as well, but it's more convenient to test if the pointer is fast.
Test Gnome's builtin gestures: 3 fingers up to overview, 3 fingers sideways to change workspace.
Test our custom gestures.
Expected behavior: Gnome's builtin gestures and our custom gestures should behave similarly.
Actual behavior: Gnome's builtin gestures do not depend on touchpad sensitivity. Whether you set your touchpad to extremely slow or extremely fast, Gnome's builtin gestures are just as sensitive as they are out of the box. But our custom gestures do depend on touchpad sensitivity.
I don't know whether I'm reporting a bug or requesting a feature. It depends on whether you see Gnome's behavior as intended or a bug. On one hand, it doesn't make sense if gesture sensitivity doesn't depend on touchpad sensitivity, they are obviously related (fyi, on KDE, gesture sensitivity does depend on touchpad sensitivity); but on the other hand, I actually find Gnome's behavior useful. I wish that you could make our custom gestures behave just like Gnome's builtins.
