--- Comment #20 from Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer at who-t.net> ---
from the input driver's perspective, a three-finger drag looks identical to a
three-finger swipe gesture, without context of the underlying widget we don't
know which one is appropriate. pushing it into libinput means it's less
accessible, less configurable and less context-aware.

libinput provides sufficient information for a compositor to convert a gesture
into a drag&drop operation. on the X side this conversion would have to be in
xf86-input-libinput, though that too lacks the context awareness. 

Either way, this is not something to be fixed in libinput, sorry.
