I have many reasons: 1. The middle click reason is still very much wide enough to accidentally click, and I find myself doing it constantly. 2. The behaviors range from annoying (Chrome bookmark folders opening ALL TABS when I just wanted to expand the folder) to destructive (middle-click paste can wipe out files, documents, text). It's a landmine. 3. I and many others coming from non-Linux platforms will only be frustrated by this new magic middle button region. 4. The old X11 synaptics driver allowed much better configuration of these regions, and did not have a middle click region by default. 5. If I did want a middle click region, 15mm is much *smaller* than I might want. As it is you have this little 1.5cm land mine that's hard to hit on purpose and easy to hit on accident. This middle-click region really, really needs to be configurable.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
