I've been working on a built-in mouse gesture system for Zen, inspired by Vivaldi.
The current prototype lets you hold the right mouse button and draw a direction-based gesture to run a browser command. Gestures can be added, edited, deleted, and previewed from Zen's settings. There is also an optional Alt and primary mouse button mode.
Gesturefy is a good extension, but it has limitations that no extension can avoid. WebExtensions cannot work on privileged browser pages such as Settings, and they can only use commands exposed through the WebExtension APIs. A built-in system can work throughout Zen and call browser commands directly.
I started by implementing the commands that I use the most when using Vivaldi. The commands currently working are Back, Forward, New Tab, Close Tab, Reload, Bookmarks, Left Tab, Right Tab, New Window, and New Private Window.
Which commands do you use most often? What is missing from that list?
I want to keep the first pull request small and reliable, then add more commands later based on feedback.
Here is a quick video showing the settings page:
