there is an application for gesture creation. it takes the gesture then the command you want to run.

yes, it's called "easystroke".
However, it does not work with multiple fingers, only with modifier keys, i.e. with a normal mouse.
I know that this might not be easy, since normal touchpads do not support multiple fingers, but only indicate how many fingers were used and a single coordinate.
There is a script by IBM that uses this technique.

Solution 4 already exists (3 finger tap is right click, 2 finger is middle)
At least on my old Asus EeePC 901 with jaunty
I don't have multitouch with my new bow, so I can't say

Whatever else is done to support touchpads and gestures, PLEASE provide a way to turn the touchpad completely OFF.
I love that my HP provides a hardware switch to do so but on other machines I am tempted to open the case and actually disconnect the blasted thing.

As calixte mentioned, the eee pc's have always had multitouch (or @ least since the first 9xx's). On my 901, it worked perfectly on windows xp. In ubuntu, it is unnatural. Two finger scrolling, two finger right click and three finger middle click are confusing and hard to implement. The worst problem is in firefox. I can scroll down a page and when i release my fingers, almost inevitably i accidentally right click
One finger should be left
two should be middle/scroll
three should be right
or an optional set up for users

10/GUI is really a good idea, but I think that it is a separated idea, notebook's touchpads are small to 10/GUI.
