@Evgeny, oops, sorry if I read the bug incorrectly!

If 3-tap truly takes "takes an unhuman skill to perform," then it
shouldn't be assigned any gesture.

Yes, middle-click is a great and venerable feature that I sometimes
use, and that many people commenting on this bug find indispensable.
But more people use right-click than middle-click, and many new
laptops are dropping physical buttons altogether (especially
netbooks). I am not referring only to Macs, but I'd still wager that
the number of users running Ubuntu on Apple laptops, where right-click
is performed with 2-tap, has already exceeded the number of Ubuntu
users who use 2-tap for middle-click.
