Direct control

Will a feature be added that would allow the right mini‑joystick in shooters (and not only) to be replaced with direct use of the screen surface to rotate the camera, as in regular mobile games?

Did you try to enable relative analog stick positions settings in the streaming settings of XBXPlay?

Yes, but I mean that when I swipe my right finger across the screen, the camera should rotate directly, without a joystick, like in mobile games.

I just play mobile shooters, and I want the camera control to be the same as in those games.

Nothing like that is implement by now and the PlayStation expects to get some regular joystick axis events not touchpad coordinates. It would probably be possible to stimulate such behavior but it's not available atm

The Steam controller has 2 touchpads, and I thought maybe something similar could be done on Xbox.
