User Swipe Hijacking (Browser Navigation on Touch Devices)

[shalanah]

Many mobile browsers rely on user swiping to navigate.

This can be detrimental to interactive websites that also rely on user inputs on swipe or horizontal scroll.

Allow for ways to circumvent this browser swipe hijacking.

Only guardrail I've seen I can use is unload prompts to prevent browser from navigating.

This also has odd effects on pointer event delegation and disrupts that flow that can create a faulty app state that relies on pointerdown, pointercancel, pointermove, pointerup reliability depending upon how far the browser navigation state.
