This bug wasn't initially just about locked drags nor intended user actions. It was and still should be considering the poor behavior that the current settings will produce for common users like myself who have a basic synaptics touchpad
In that case there are continual unintended highlighting, grabbing of text or files and temp loss of the left click. Myself & others like me shouldn't have to be figuring out the synclient parameters & running commands to gain the expected & full use of our touchpads.
So there should be a visible option to return to that, in System Settings, a Start up option, whatever.
At least here this is what returns my touchpad to being useful & prevents ALL the unintended nonsense from occurring
synclient LockedDrags=0 TapButton1=1 TapButton2=3 TapButton3=2
