  Perhaps a "pedal mode" for mouse and a pedal needs to be added.  I think you 
do have a point as I believe the way page turning pedals for musicians are 
based on mouse clicks, and it's obvious that you can't orient the pointer with 
a pedal.  I also see that if your are projecting you presentation on large 
screen  it would be most convenient to just click back and forth using  the 
left and right buttons.  But for someone using a tablet style computer some 
form of accurate touch is mandatory.  This particularly the case with pianists 
or other instrumentalists that really can't be fooling with a mouse, and  need 
to be able to quickly reach up to the tablet and have certain page turns.  Is 
it possible that the mouse buttons would work without needed to be oriented on 
a specific spot, but touch would  related to one half of either side of the 
screen?  Another issue would be that you don't want touch so generalized that 
the page would accidentally be turned  by inadvertent touch.  To conclude, I am 
an advocate of much better touch operation, but like everything else proper 
smooth implementation is critical.  It would be best if it doesn't interfere 
with the way a mouse works now.
