Description Christian Hergert 2017-10-14 20:54:37 UTC 
Currently, two-finger-scroll on a touchpad when looking at the icon-grid is too sensitive to allow landing on a desired page. For example, with 3 pages, it can be very difficult to land on the second page. Instead, just jumps too quickly to the last.

I assume this is because the scroll-event is being interpreted instead of first trying to capture a two-finger gesture at higher priority.

Like the workspace switching gesture (bug 788994), this should be content-stick-to-fingers so that you can feel your movement to the next page of icons.
