Switch spaces via gestures on newer laptops

I'm not sure how it works, but a few hours after setting up multiclutch, the desktop issue fixes itself. It stops working again on reboot, but again, work for a while and it will fix itself. This could just be a quirk with my configuration, and as MultiClutch isn't open-source (hint hint, Will Henderson) I have no idea what's going on.

At any rate, another workaround is to put an empty TextEdit window (or any non-Finder window) on any blank desktops.
