@2 Why wouldn't it be possible?
Isn't it better to have a consistent behavior across apps?
The only problem is if there is a ViewPager, because when you swipe anywhere on the screen, the ViewPager will take priority over the navigation drawer...
But this is why I ask for a flag for the navigation drawer, because it might not be good for all apps and users.
Just add a flag that means : "allow opening drawer from everywhere (not just edges)" . It will have 3 modes: "disabled", "always", and "only when full-screen-navigation-gestures is enabled".
Need to work on the names :)
Frankly, I think the whole gestures idea is a big problem on Android, because apps already use various things on the edges.
It's unsafe to use now any side.
Top is for status bar, bottom is for navigation bar, and now the left and right are taken for gestures.
This causes a lot of accidental triggering of those things, especially on games.
I hope you will add some kind of special flag to enter game mode or something, that will prevent all accidental triggering of those things.

@4 Nice, but can you please consider adding the flag of dragging anywhere to open the navigation drawer?
It could actually be useful...

@4 Wait it says "Drawers are now swiped open using a long press and swipe"
This isn't right. It should be easy to open, as before...
Why change it?
Can you please give us control of this, at least?

Description
I'd like to change it, or have a flag to change this.
I think it's better that the back button gesture won't be blocked here, or at least give apps the choice for this.
Instead, I think there should be a way for the navigation drawer to work as it once used to, by dragging from anywhere on the screen to trigger it. Maybe by a flag on the navigation drawer.
Also, it solves the assymetric behavior of not blocking the back-gesture on the right edge, but not on the left edge.
