We could speed up fingerapps if we had the fingerwheel and toolbar running
permanently and only show hid it if a fingerapp is or isn't on top.
This would also reduce memory usage if more than one fingerapp is running.

Input could be realized over dbus communication (might be to slow if the
scrollwheel finally scrolls) or as an input manager generating key press events.
We probably need a dbus interface in any case to specify the images the toolbar
buttons need to have, how many buttons there are, ...
