If you have a single app that requires a combination, you may be able
to assign the action that occurs from that combination to a key and/or
mouse combination using X Resources translations. This may be done in
a custom app-defaults file, or via xrdb.

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.
