Please see my response to Peter's letter. I think it very much depends
on how it will be used (associated with the pointer or standalone as it
is now).

For standalone application, recalling your statement that on Win you
have this gesture invoke configuration utility I would argue for
KEY_CONFIG for it.

Thanks.
