Well ... that's kind of a problem now ;-)

The way it works now is that it select the word, and then try to do  
an action. so if you select a local variable, it will
just select it, and not leave the method.

I did not really find an easy way to do it otherwise ... I tried with  
control-doubleclicking or stuff like that but this
kind of events are not really detected. I was thinking of introducing  
a kind of 'mode' here (even if some people
don't really like this idea, but hey, I'm a vim user ;-) ). Then you  
could switch between 'navigation mode' and 'edition mode'
for example (or even have other modes if useful ones where to be found).

Other than that, I don't override some other gestures (well some  
keyboard shortcuts if you install keymapping).
I also have some code somewhere dealing with mapping screen corners  
to services that I have yet
to integrate.
