Comment 7 for bug 1296832

We've tried the above workaround. I works nicely on the device. However it does not work correctly on the desktop with touch pad or mouse. We're seeing the following issues:

1) double clicking on the desktop is not causing trigger, both using touchpad and a mouse
2) there is no way to capture MouseWheel events in MultiPointTouchArea. We need to capture these events to handle horizontal scrolling (see this MR https://code.launchpad.net/~artmello/gallery-app/gallery-app-horizontal_scroll/+merge/212237)

Not sure how to proceed unless we can conditionally use MouseArea on desktopMode and MultiPointTouchArea on device. Can we put pressure on upstream to get the real fix working? Lots of workaround here and none are ideal..
