Is simpleGestures safe?
simpleGestures lets web pages mimic mouse gestures that trigger tab actions through the extension.
simpleGestures runs a mouse-gesture content script on every site and accepts page mouse events without checking whether they came from a real user. A web page can synthesize the right gesture over a link or page area, causing the extension background script to open tabs, close tabs, or use session-related tab actions.
