@Pat

You can tweak the gesture recognition parameters yourself. On device, edit the following file:

/usr/share/unity8/Launcher/Launcher.qml

You want lines 192 to 195:

        maxDeviation: units.gu(1)
        wideningAngle: 30
        distanceThreshold: units.gu(3)
        minSpeed: units.gu(5)

For dealing with the "big thumb moves the touch point downwards" you will want to increase maxDeviation.
Please play around with those properties and tell me if there's a configuration that works well for you. Ie., one that doesn't reject seemingly correct edge-drags but that does reject taps, vertical drags and overly slow drags.
