Hi Leonardo,
Reaching out to the Plasma developers mailing list, since it's where I
guess this would be developed.

Providing more details into how this could be included in Plasma would
be useful to decide how your project would integrate.

The application is supposed to support every touchpad capable of handling 4 fingers thanks to its customization of threshold. I would like to have this implemented in KDE environment. I am the only one working at this project but I can implement this by myself and show the results.
