Browser-laptop: Mouse gestures

[luixxiul]

https://github.com/brave/browser-laptop/issues/1835#issue-156030032

Feature request: I would like to have the ability to use mouse gestures just like Opera/Vivaldi, with the default gestures they have

Prioritizing to 1.2. We get a fair number of support questions about this and I am pretty sure we have at least 2 or 3 dupes floating around.

dear, i also need to be able to cruise back/forward by clicking my mouse buttons. support for os x system trackpad gestures is needed too... thank you for saving our time.

Missing mouse gestures support like in FireGestures or crxMouse is the only thing, why i'm not using brave

And "rocker gestures" to borrow from Opera's nomenclature, right-click/left-click goes back and left-click/right-click goes forward.

Presto era Opera was also smart enough that it would pick up that on a paginated site like a blog or a table with next/previous buttons that a mouse gesture would bring you forward to the next page. I don't know why they haven't picked that up in the blink/chromium era.

Mouse gestures are a must have for my primary browser.

Sadly, OSX mouse gestures for history navigation are a must have for me as well. Hopefully they can be added soon, thanks

Would be great if an extension or something native would be added to support mouse gestures. Very popular feature for power users, also in Vivaldi.

This is the only thing keeping me on Opera over Brave!

Happy to discover macOS swipe gestures are now working for history navigation in v0.19.95 :)
