Title:
  Running Unity disables Xorg's 3-finger click support (middle click)

Status in Mactel Support:
  Invalid
Status in “xserver-xorg-input-synaptics” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Xorg fails to recognize a 3-finger click as a middle-button-click when
  Unity is running and instead thinks it's a left-click.  This bug only
  happens in Unity 3D. It does not happen with Unity 2D or Gnome Shell.

  Please note this bug is about physically "clicking" a clickpad with 3
  fingers. 3 finger tapping is different and has been intentionally
  overridden in Unity 3D by new gestures.
