title: ListView and multi-touch gestures
body: <p>Firstly, I realize this doesn't follow any particular convention.  I'm just wondering if it is possible.</p>
  
  <p>I'd like to give my users the ability to perform an action on many items in a ListView.  My ListView items already contain a checkbox for something different; and adding another checkbox is not an option (it would look ugly?).</p>
  
  <p>I was wondering if it's possible to programmatically highlight multiple items by determining which items were covered by a two-finger swipe.</p>
  
  <p>This would require a few things:</p>
  
  <p>1) Android's ListView would have to be capable of determining the difference between a two-finger swipe and a single-finger swipe.
  2) I would need to be able to clarify which code a two-finger swipe invokes.
  3) Ideally, if I'm two-finger swiping, and my fingers reach the bottom of the screen, the ListView would begin scrolling; so I could continue to highlight items that are originally off the screen.
  4) The ListView would have to be capable of highlighting more than one option.</p>
  
  <p>Number 4 could probably be hacked around so long as I could determine which items were passed over with the two-fingers.  I could hack together my own "selection."  After doing this, I would provide some functionality via the Menu button to do something to these highlighted items.</p>
  
  <p>Does any of this seem possible?  What do you think?</p>
