See, if they were trying to sell games solely on the functions of the new controller in actual gameplay, yes, I would call it a gimmick. They didn't go around showing us gameplay using the new touch pad, rather it was there to compliment the controller.
Even though the controller has all these new features, they didn't try to sell it as the defining point of the PS4. That alone assures me that this controller won't be a gimmick. Rather, it will hold well in the transition to the next gen.
