So there's not that much interest in this. It'll take some time till I get something sorted with this (network in scratchbox).
Disabling clicks sure isn't a good idea, maybe disabling just stroke is. Anyway thats no no. 1 solution.
It could use a config file, that's the easier part.
@Leon Obscuro MX: The cube is no good idea. It's BS. However there are a lot who could like this, so you should start a thread for a discussion about this. My plan and the cube only have corners in common.
Yea, he thought about covering proximity sensor as a "triggeR" for gestures recognition, then, uncovering it would bring back old'n'goodie point and click mode.
There already is 100% working daemon for recognizing proximity sensor state (not using much resources, in fact, almost none at all), so this part of idea may be considered done. It's "only" matter of incorporating feature.
BTW, as it was mentioned in some huge thread long time ago, it *is* possible to create multitouch ffor resistive screens. When you touch resistive screen in 2 place, actual "sensed" place is exactly in center between them (so, if You touch left and right part of the screen, device will sense 1 touch on center). Using some complicated algorithm, it's possible to recognize when there are many touch points at once, or it was just quick change of touching place. Someone (maybe qole, but I don't know for sure) ever mentioned devices, that incorporate that.
If something like *this* could be done, that would be real overkill.
My wife has LG Viewty which has very nice function like this, if you see lockscreen, you make a gesture (like W, V or S) and it starts an app linked to that gesture.

I'll start from this. It can be incorporated in hildon-home later. For reading the stroke a window has to be created. Reading directly in hildon-home would be much better.
I tried some multitouch experiments on my notebook. It's somehow possible , but I don't believe you will ever have any really good results.

I am using easystroke, and I love it. I tried to port it, but failed. It's written in C++ and I am not familiar with this. Anyway I think it's to "big" for the n900 and the gui would have to be rewritten. So, a small solution would be enough for the beginning
