If this gesture is meant to only start DnD (as in the user-visible distinct
operation), I've got the feeling it will be better to get the compositor/client
involved. Otherwise, it will be really hard to tell whether DnD can be started
from the pointer position, you might as well be selecting text, clicking a
button, doing nothing... 

One thing I wonder though is how would this work best if 3fg pointer movement
is only meant to happen during this operation, and remain static otherwise. I'm
maybe overcomplicating things in my head though.

If the gesture is rather seen as a shortcut to "button 1 drags", then I guess
you have as much information as you need to do that, it would be pointless to
punt this any further.
