Drag handles
Ben Styles
It would be really useful to be able to choose one of our own components inside a scene to be a drag handle for "back" gestures. This would make modals that you can drag away easier to implement. Currently, you can only set the "gestureResponseDistance", which is a very limited API and makes working with ScrollViews very difficult.
