    Hold gestures merely denote "there are fingers on the touchpad but they are
    not moving". As touchpad touches are generally fully abstracted, a client
    cannot currently know when a user is interacting with the touchpad without
    moving - no motion events will be sent in this case.
    
    The two use-cases here are:
    - hold-to-interact: where a hold gesture is active for some time
      a menu could pop up, or some object is selected, etc.
    - hold-to-cancel: where e.g. kinetic scrolling is currently active, the start
      of a hold gesture can be used to stop the scroll
    
    Since hold gestures by definition do not have movement, there is no need for
    an "update" stage in the gesture.
