Right-click: My touchscreen uses the evtouch driver, and the way it implements right click is it waits for you to double click somewhere, and it then simulates a right click instead. I think then a triple click simulates a double click... but, in any case, it works rather well. Implementing something like that at the X server level or driver level would probably be the way to go -- and the code for doing that would be pretty simple to do.
