System wide

  • Hide pointer cursor when touch screen interaction is occurring, reveal if/when mouse or trackpad is used
  • Palette hover/click behaviours
    • Single touch should _not_ trigger hover delay palette content (to prevent toolbar palettes and help hints obscuring UI)
    • Touch and hold should trigger hover delayed palette content (like a right click)
  • Hide all keyboard shortcut accelerators when booting on touch only devices
  • Make toolbar overflow drop-down widget a standard sugar toolbutton width to allow easier access
  • Up/down menu overflow UI too thin (hard to scroll up, gtk combo widget needs work here)
