If you can resolve the growing-button issue, I'll commit this. It's a 
definite plus for usability, I was rather angry at my laptop this 
morning for not having a middle mouse button to do _exactly this_, 
actually.

Note that I don't actually get the button issue on Linux, and I can't 
actually see how it happens. Thoughts?
