I've discussed this with some of the other Ubuntu-X guys, and we've
decided not to revert upstream's change.  2-button mice do not seem to
be very common, and it appears to be feasible for us to add special-case
quirks via udev for particular ones that people want to have work.

Thus, this particular general request to revert upstream's change I'm
closing as a WONTFIX, and I have documented the process for bug
reporters to file to request special enablement of their hardware, at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Quirks#2-button%20Mice - if people find these
directions incomplete, please update the wiki to clarify.

So in summary, if you have a 2-button mouse with this problem, please
file a new bug for that specific HW.  See the above link for directions.

** Changed in: xserver-xorg-input-evdev (Ubuntu)
       Status: Triaged => Won't Fix
