Tbh I don't think there will be any more WebKit-side gestures. There are potential gestures for browsers in general, like swipe to switch tabs, or pull to refresh, but that doesn't involve WebKit.

There can be a variant of the same gesture for touchscreens though (say, an edge swipe), but it can use the same setting.

As for the existing ones, the touchscreen ones (pan, long press etc) are completely necessary, so I don't think it makes sense to be able to disable them. And pinch zoom (on both devices) is more debatable, but why would an app disable it?
