Am I missing something or couldn't you just do preventDefault() 
onmousedown-event in javascript? Like <body onmousedown="preventDefault();"> to 
disable it anywhere. 

Or if wanting to prevent specific nodenames (like imges and text in body and 
td), then like (sorry Im not any good in javascript) this:
 
<script>
(function() {
    var onmousedown;
    if('onmousedown' in document && typeof document.onmousedown == 'function') {
        onmousedown = document.onmousedown;
    }
    document.onmousedown = function(e) {
        if(typeof e == 'undefined') {
            e = window.event;
        }
        if(!e.target) {
            e.target = e.srcElement || document;
        }
        if('nodeName' in e.target && (e.target.nodeName.toLowerCase() == 'img'
        || e.target.nodeName.toLowerCase() == 'body'
        || e.target.nodeName.toLowerCase() == 'td')) {
            if(e.preventDefault) {
                e.preventDefault();
            }

            // If you want to register mousedown events for
            // elements containing images, you will want to
            // remove the next four lines.
            if(e.stopPropagation) {
                e.stopPropagation();
            }
            e.cancelBubble = true;

            e.returnValue = false;
            return false;
        }

        if(onmousedown !== undefined) {
            onmousedown(e);
        }
    };
})();
</script>
