aiui though, it still doesn't work quite like a PC 2 button mouse... e.g.
(aiui) I didn't think that it could simulate a middle mouse button click
since it only registers left or right buttons separately and not
simultaneously.

 

Not that there are that many Windows apps that use the middle button, but
even so - it's a platform distinction that does exist and which you
potentially have to ignore if you are going to single source a cross
platform GUI, even if it would enrich your application on the platform that
supports it.

 

Bigger distinctions exist even separate from the GUI of course, such as
conventions on where to store application settings etc, unless the framework
anticipates and abstracts all such application needs.

Possibly, although of course the Apple already has a quite different mouse
in the form of the Mighty Mouse.

 

I have a Mighty Mouse - they are just like normal mouses - they ostensibly
have only one button, but a change in the Settings makes it see two and more
and more things require a right click on the Mac. The problem is the
bluetooth is so flakey I can't use it any longer, it is just terrible.
