Shorter swipe(something like max 30- 50%): When you are in application it closes it. When you are in homescreen or events it locks the device.
Longer swipe: It brings the menu as it is now.

Yes, that was about it. Gestures. Means to an end. We have a new hammer so everything has become a nail. Let's use gestures for everything, with no regard whether it suits the purpose or not.
Consistent? Definitely. Intuitive? Definitely not!
The new interface may have lost some of that consistency but it made up to it a thousand times with a much increased intuitivity.
This comes from someone who has used Jolla for a year and was very familiar with the interface, so you cannot accuse me of confusing intuitivity with familiarity.
only problem would be scrolling, but i think its enought to scroll holding space between covers and not within cover. or maybe setting a lateral vertical bar (only virtual) on the edge. if u want to scroll u can do it between the covers, or using thumb up and down on the right side ( or left)

Why not a two-finger swipe to switch carousel?

Did you know that a double press of the power button wakes straight to home screen? Works only when lock code is not required, though.
Code:
mcetool --set-doubletap-mode=unlock

mcetool --set-doubletap-mode=show-unlock-screen

That way a double tap on the screen takes you straight to home screen, if the lock code is not active. Just tested, works in 1.1.9.28.Code:mcetool --set-doubletap-mode=unlock

Code:mcetool --set-doubletap-mode=show-unlock-screen
