Well yes, also using windows, gnome shell or unity 2d also workaround the problem.
Having said that, they have their own issues but this 3 finger tap problem is one of the major factors in my decision to use KDE for the foreseeable future and since this has been marked as won't fix (for at least the next few releases I imagine), I guess it's up to people to weigh up how important middle clicks are and decide whether they want unity 3d or middle-clicks, you can't have both.

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.
