Title:
  gnome-mouse-properties misses features to configure touchpad properly

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

  By default the X-Server has got the feature to paste by middle click. That is not good with touchpad, because in the right top corner is the virual tap key for the middle click, where you can accidently paste whatever is in your clipboard.
  The right bottom key is the right click, but thats not so problematic.

  gnome-mouse-properties misses the ability to configure what corners
  should do what clicks and important, if the corners should do any
  clicks! it has only to opportuniy to decide if you want tapping or
  not, but thats not enough.

  kde instead has kde-config-touchpad, which is capable of configuring this very nicely, but the problem is, that this only lasts for the curent gnome session not generally
  so it is very important to add the functionality to the gnome tool, even if it is only in gconf-editor!!
