Still, you will have those who are learning it for the first time (e.g.,
my heart surgeon previously mentioned, children, etc.) for whom a single
buttoned mouse is preferrable.
Also -- for how many of the 'average' users will right-clicking be well
understood?
While learnability is important,
I think it is option-click.
At least, that's the way I've done it using a uni-button mouse (because,
you can, of course, get a true right-click using a 3rd party mouse on a
Mac should you so need).
