dino99, the comment you refer to was an answer to Michael's question
about how to emulate the button clicks to reproduce the problem. It was
not "the real issue" or a solution for the problem.

Anyway, I've just borrowed a mouse with Back+Forward buttons, and
reproduced the problem in Ubuntu 14.04. In addition to the areas
highlighted by Robert Roth, the Back button is also incorrectly treated
as a primary-click on apps in the "What's New" and "Top Rated" apps on
the home screen -- but oddly, not on the "Top Rated" apps in a section
screen like "Games". The Forward button seems to be incorrectly treated
as a primary-click only on the toolbar.

Title:
  Hardware mouse 'back key' doesn't work always in USC

Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  software-center 5.0.1.4, 5.0.1.5, Ubuntu 11.10
  software-center 5.1.10, Ubuntu 12.04

  Problem 1
  When clicking on a category that has no sub-categories like 'Accessories' or 'Fonts' mouse-back-button-click will highlight the entry over which the mouse currently is instead of bringing me back to the USC main page.

  Problem 2
  When in a category with sub-categories like 'Developer Tools' and clicking the mouse-back-button when the mouse is over a sub-category icon nothing happens (no back-to-main-action is preformed).

  Problem 3
  When in a category with sub-categories like 'Developer Tools' and clicking the mouse-back-button when the mouse is over a 'Top Rated Developer Tools' item it acts like a left click and opens the top rated item instead of preforming a back-to-main-menu action.
