The application will be frozen in the splash screen. The only message
printed is
"QMetaObject::indexOfSignal: signal visibleChanged(bool) from QQuickWindow
redefined in QQuickWindowQmlImpl"
Verified with Qt 5.4.1
And just tested with Android , it is working.

But in fact Flickable has provided the "fling" gesture already. And
commonly used in ListView for scrolling.
