Yes. Qt has gesture support, but it doesn't work in Maemo 5. I was hoping that it would (this was before the 4.6.2 final release), so that I could use swiping for forward/back. It's never worked though, so I guess I'll just remove it.
Wow, you're fast. Well, i was looking at the gesture part trying to decide the best way to add side-to-side switching of chapter or book (configurable, i suppose). It seems pretty silly this doesn't work in Maemo. Could a horizontal scroll be hacked to do it? Worst case, i guess we could use the l/r arrow keys.

I'll try to figure out the icon issue.

Edit: Seems to suggest here that gestures work specifically on Maemo. Is it possible this is just wrongly-implemented?
