While each of those components provides some of the functionality that I need, they are not as well suited as GestureArea. This is due to the fact that I want to support multiple gestures on a custom QQuickItem: tap, tapAndHold, pan (one finger drag), pinch (two finger drag). This is rather cumbersome with the current components, whereas it sould be trivial with GestureArea. In addition to that, while I don't currently make use if it, GestureArea provides the ability to use custom gesture recognizers, which I believe none of the 3 current components support.
I think MouseArea, PinchArea and MultiPointTouchArea are very useful, but they are not really a good replacement for GestureArea.
