It has already achieved this. There are no home/menu buttons on my Nexus 4, and there has been no need for these buttons since the initial developer release over 2 years ago. > You are currently using a whole border for one fixed widget (e.g. the > info center on top).

The top bar does have a visual indicator, and because of that, it is possible to access different settings by sliding down different indicators. So, actually, the top edge essentially has several (around 5-10) different areas to interact with. > Ten is huge number for widgets.

I can't imagine needing to launch the settings app often enough to need a gesture for it.
