Description

Qt5 supports touch screens, but our input relay does not forward them yet.
Flicking the object lists by touch events would be a really nice feature.

implemented in:
libopenage/gui/guisys/private/gui_input_impl.cpp

used by: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtquick-flickable.html in libopenage/gui/qml/TypePicker.qml

Research direction

Start in libopenage/gui/guisys/private/gui_input_impl.cpp and inspect how the input relay handles Qt5 events. Then read libopenage/gui/qml/TypePicker.qml and the QtQuick Flickable documentation to understand the expected use. Done means touch events reach the QML object lists and those lists can be flicked by touch.
