We use gestures for scrolling: ListView, GridView, Gallery, MapView,
WebView, ScrollView. Calendar uses gestures to navigate between
months/weeks/days. Calculator uses gestures to switch between the
simple and complex operations. Etc.

Using gestures to navigate within an app has a HUGE problem: it is
totally undiscoverable.
