Interesting to see the button events using the command "xinput test
bcm5974"... With Unity loaded the middle click (three fingers) is
reported incorrectly as button #1 being pressed and released. Without
Unity, xinput correctly reports the middle click as button #2.

Also note that without Unity in Ubuntu Classic (not effects), I can
reintroduce the bug by running "geistest" at the same time as the above
xinput test (in different windows). So it would seem that libutouch-geis
might be close the cause.

Bug description:
  as soon as i put down three fingers, the love handles appear. on the
  macbook pro a middle click is done with a 3 finger click. this is very
  low priority, and i could even see a wontfix. there's a simple work
  around to just not put all 3 fingers down at the same time and then
  click after all 3 are down.
