In ToM, when Rand is destroying the Trolloc horde, he raises his hands, and then bends them into fists to finish the weaves.
It seems to me that combat weaves do have some gestures, since it may be difficult for people in a fight to keep their hands still. But it may well be that all those hand gestures aren't strictly necessary, and Semirhage could throw a fireball without hand gestures if needed. Maybe the fireball wouldn't be very precise, though.

The blue sparks are not necessarily the result of a power-wrought blade.

I thought that RJ had confirmed at some point that Thom had power wrought knives. *NM*

he may have, but it has also been implied that the blue light was because of something special/uniqu

No, I think RJ just didn't think it through, seeing as Rand sliced Lanfear's invisible weaves too...

Gestures and Weaves go hand in hand and since flows originate from the body you can logically

In general, only third age Aes Sedai gesture when they weave - it's a block imposed by training.

Your example proved my point - LTT only said that it was needed for certain weaves.

I never said she could - I said she sensed them, and felt the woman's channeling.

I think she had a ward to detect saidin, and when it was triggered, she guessed it would be Air
