$ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad click-method
'fingers'

Only now do I grok "areas" and  "fingers" in this screenshot as
referencing the two settings in the release notes *which uses neither
term* so I had no idea what it was referring to.

So the description there for "fingers" is what I've always experienced
on this laptop with Fedora 25 through 28, and Windows 10. I tap two
fingers at the same time to get a contextual menu. Meanwhile the
release notes say "keep one finger in contact with the touchpad and
tap with another finger" and that does nothing for me. Nothing
happens. And yet the release notes say it's the default.
