If that means a larger screen in a smaller space, I'm for it.

If it means that I'll have to suffer due to a clumsy execution, add a slim bezel back. I'd rather have access to all of the gestures without having to stretch my reach or be careful and precise.

I personally against it for 2 reasons: 1. Vulnerable to a drop. You are guaranteed to break something on a drop to the ground... 2. Might make edge swipe more difficult. I'm not sure on this point as I never tried swipe OS on such screen, but a little bit of bezel will make the experience better IMHO
I'm not clumsy, so the drop is not my concern. But if it has a keyboard, the swipe from the bottom is nigh impossible.
