// Base class for storing parameters of synthetic gestures. Sending an object
// over IPC is handled by encapsulating it in a SyntheticGesturePacket object.
//
// The subclasses of this class only store data on synthetic gestures.
// The logic for dispatching input events that implement the gesture lives
// in separate classes in content/browser/renderer_host/input/.
//
// Adding new gesture types involves the following steps:
//   1) Create a new sub-type of SyntheticGestureParams with the parameters
//      needed for the new gesture.
//   2) Use IPC macros to create serialization methods for the new type in
//      content/common/input_messages.h.
//   3) Extend ParamTraits<content::SyntheticGesturePacket>::Write/Read/Log in
//      content/common/input/input_param_traits.cc.
//   4) Add a new unit test to make sure that sending the type over IPC works
//      correctly.
// The details of each step should become clear when looking at other types.
