No, this just isn't true. You want global gestures (e.g. three finger swipe to change desktop) to take precedence over local shortcuts. And you cannot -- cannot -- know at touch-down time who's going to be ultimately interested in it. Because for a three-finger swipe, there will be a time when there's only one finger down, or two. At which point the client will say, 'ah yes, I'm interested in this!'. And then the third finger lands and you regret a terrible design decision you made.
