Outside of X11, Ctrl-click is exactly equivalent to a right-click
and that is the only way to get the contextual menus on a laptop
without a mouse plugged in. The only way to get that behaviour in
X11 I could figure out is to check the "Enable key equivalents under
X11". Unfortunately, as the preferences dialogue warns, that brings
havoc to those X11 applications relying on the meta modifier.
It occurs to me that "Emulate three-button mouse" should be changed to
use Ctrl instead of Cmd for right-click, for consistency with native
OSX behavior.
