Wait, you guys don't use your mouse wheel or keyboard to scroll?
To get from the top of a REALLY long page 3/4 of the way down instantly? No. Did you read the article?
Many mouse wheels act as a button as well. Hold the button down while moving the cursor up or down to scroll effortlessly. The further the distance you move the cursor, the faster it scrolls.
I love to use Home and End to jump within a webpage but so many webpages hijack those keys or don't know what to do with them it's depressing
I'm lucky I haven't seen one of these yet

I think the 'gestures' crowd needs to go pound sand.
Either implement it as a setting, or don't force people to use it.
