That's fair enough, for Mac applications, but many X11 applications
expect multiple button mice. As Noah has discovered, the multi-button
emulation only works to an extent; some X11 applications (even xterm)
require the use of modifier keys like Ctrl with the secondary mouse
buttons. That combination is impossible using button emulation, since
Ctrl is already taken, so you can't do a Ctrl-Button-2, for example.
There are certainly combinations that are impossible with a 1-button
mouse, but the examples you mention aren't. There is no problem to do
Ctrl-Button-2 and Ctrl-Button-3 in xterm, using Ctrl-Opt-Click and
Ctrl-Cmd-Click.
