[Android] Friendly gesture to switch instance

[umgpy]

It would be nice to switch instances by tapping the screen with two or three fingers or any other gesture(s)

Translate Web Pages extension implements it like this for reference here

  // show/hide popup on 3 finger tap
  window.addEventListener("touchstart", (e) => {
    if (e.touches.length == 3) {
      if (rootElement.isConnected) {
        hidePopup();
      } else {
        showPopup();
      }
    }
  });

The accesibility issue you are bringing here worth the discussion. I would suggest give some detail on this to work on.

Thanks for considering this feature request. What sort of detail's were you thinking of, general implementations?

One thing that comes to my mind is that certain gestures conflict with device manufacture's device wide gestures, such as, screenshots- with three fingers. So in maybe a disclaimer for the users for such potential conflicts or have options to choose from.

Additionally, maybe it might be better to let user decide what action this add-on performs based on the gesture.

If possible, would you please help us by doing a case study on the most unused screen gestures which are easy and not used on a majority. So, that we could use it.

What else would be worth for gestures, if you ask me - Redirect to Original/frontend, Copy raw. These three are enough and nothing is required other than this.

P.S. I approve of this idea but still there are other things to be ironed out before going for this.
