Yep Till it seems that there still some problems with the GestureRecognizer.

However I'm thinking of a solution to make this working. Maybe I can use
QGraphicsScene::itemAt function so that if a Gesture has been recognized and
there's an item at that position QGraphicsScene will create either a signal
or an event and send it to the item.
