Bug Description

As discussed here: https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/msg17269.html, when a device with a narrow bezel is inserted into a plastic case the plastic may protrude above the display and make swiping in from the edges very difficult.

A setting in the GUI should be provided so that the edgeSize property can be adjusted without editing files. A value of 4gu works well for the MX4.
