Should that not be something left up to the user agent (so UAAG)? 
Otherwise you're essentially requiring every site/app to provide some 
settings dialog/screen. Activation should happen on click (to satisfy 
situations where a user is not using touchscreen, but a keyboard or 
keyboard-like interface which may not necessarily fire fake touch events 
- see some of the cases in 
http://patrickhlauke.github.io/touch/tests/results/#mobile-tablet-touchscreen-assistive-technology-events 
and 
http://patrickhlauke.github.io/touch/tests/results/#mobile-tablet-keyboard-mouse-events) 
as a general approach.
