Details
The gesture for opening the Customizer is 2-fingers swipe upwards from near the bottom of the screen. On the Z3C, there is a software home button and if you start the gesture too low on the screen near the SHB, the gesture does not get detected. It seems as though the SHB is blocking touch events from reaching the app.
[Blocking Requested - why for this release]: This impairs the discoverability of the Customizer add-on and is a bad user experience in general. Flagging alive for NI?

Software Home issue, transfer NI to Michael.

Justin and I spoke on IRC about this problem. It sounds like the best approach is to have some code in the Customizer add-on that only runs in the system app and which triggers the Customizer code in the curent app when the 2 finger swipe gesture is detected on the system window.

I'm taking this based on feedback given by mhenretty to inject the gesture detection into the System app (similar to edge gestures): https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/blob/master/apps/system/js/edge_swipe_detector.js#L207
