These are all separate issues that could be explored with follow-on bugs. I'm not sure what the right behavior is for
these or whether there is enough information from the OS to do anything about them (e.g., I suspect there is no way to
get the touch count for these trackpad-generated gestures on macOS, nor do I really think it would be useful).

You might file a follow-on issue for 1 and 3.

Would you be able to review this? If not I'll ask @johanvos or @pankaj-bansal to be the second reviewer.
