Could you build this?
Partial While an editor script in Unity is relatively lightweight, hooking directly into macOS AppKit NSEvent native trackpad gesture streams on Apple Silicon requires specialized native plugin development.
What it would actually take: The plugin needs an Objective-C / Swift native bundle that hooks into macOS `NSView` gesture recognizers (`magnifyWithEvent`, `rotateWithEvent`, `scrollWheel`) for the active Unity Editor window handle. It then communicates these continuous touch/gesture deltas via P/Invoke C# interop into Unity's internal `SceneView` camera navigation hooks. Building this requires knowledge of macOS AppKit native event handling and Unity native C++ plugin architecture.
