None of Ubuntu's gestures are discoverable, that's just the hard reality of it.

Since "Swiping from the right" is meant to change to a (previously used) app, we could extend this gesture to somehow integrate a "back"-option. For example we could swipe from the right side to the top-right (or bottom-right) corner and activate the "back"-action this way? signature.asc Descr
