Hi Mario and Bernhard,

it is possible to pan in OSX with magic mouse / trackpad using Shift key 
... that should work also for pivot I think...

Moreover many MCAD sw use middle click to PAN and change Pivot (i.e. 
SolidWorks, PTC, FreeCAD etc)
So I would stay on the first choice that Mario did :)
