Description
I just looked at Twitter's newish Moments tab on their iOS app, and I find it rather inspired to use a horizontal scrollbar to signal place while swiping through 10 pages (horizontally). The great benefit of this instead of dots is that users can intuitively drag the virtual scrollbar to speed through all the pages, from index=1 to 10 in one drag of the scrollbar from left to right.
I'd like to try implementing this myself for Swiper. Any interest in such interaction or direction or how exactly I can implement this would be helpful, I'm pretty new with React Native.

Research direction
Start with the Swiper component and the linked Twitter Moments documentation to compare the proposed horizontal scrollbar interaction. Define how dragging the scrollbar should move synchronously across pages, then confirm the behavior on a React Native example; done means users can drag from the first page to the last and move through the intervening pages.
