Summary0019949: Scrolling up and down often triggers accidental side swipes
DescriptionWhen users hold the phone with one hand and are controlling the UI mainly with their thumb, they often accidentally trigger a side swipe when they're actually trying to scroll up/down.

You can visualize how this might happen.
If the phone is held in the left hand and the user:
- swipes down with the left thumb, it naturally arcs from the top left to bottom center.
- swipes up with the left thumb, it naturally arcs from the bottom center to the top left.
If the phone is held in the right hand and the user uses their right thumb, the opposite occurs.

Note: other apps that support both horizontal swipe and vertical scroll actions in a single view don't exhibit this issue.

Note: in build 1077, this issue seems to be most severe when swiping down at the bottom of a view OR up at the top of a view.

Implemented suggested solution (no reflection needed). The swipe action to change tabs must be now less than 30°.

Fixed in build 2.0.0.1080
