This is a case of default not matching the physical hardware resulting in a
terrible user experience. It's a bug that shouldn't need a workarounds.

> middle button is still a commonly used interaction method 

This bug should be fixed such that it can be turned it ON for those that need
it or more possess more suitable hardware. More choice is good, but defaults
should match the hardware. I have a dell laptop at work with a clickpad and no
issues with misclicks on Fedora 25.  But that clickpad is larger, centered.
Enabling 3 buttons on that is the right choice, but not here.

Trying to force this feature on older hardware that was not designed for it
leads to a poor user experience. If you're going to proceed anyway, there
should be a blacklist system to reverse default for hardware that's not
appropriate like my Asus.
