A few months ago I purchased an Acer T232HL touch screen monitor and hooked it to my Late 2012 i7 mini running Yosemite. What a great looking combo and I discovered something a couple of days ago (I never tried it in OSX, it always worked with WIN 8.1, which is also installed), I have basic touch screen capability.
I have the standard OSX 10.10.1 installed, 1TB disk, 16 gig memory and a 230 gig SD to boot from. I do not have any third party drivers (that I am aware of) for the Acer monitor and yet I have basic mouse operations via touch. I can two finger swipe many things, double touch, close views and programs and such. So where did this capability come from and I hope it becomes a standard on the new Airs.
As a side note, I am on the developer program and had previously installed 10.10.2. When I found out how bad the beta review was I sent bug reports and reinstalled the public version of 10.10.1 build 14B25.
Bring it on Apple! Touch is the way to go, especially for the Airs!
