It's the question of making it useful for everybody or not. The mode 
itself has a certain value, and if it's usage is too annoying, I doubt 
it find any users beyond the ones that are used to it from the Amiga 
times - I've used an Amiga for more than 10 years as my main system, 
and while I didn't find it bad back then, I find it now horrible to use 
:-)

So I think changing the behaviour of the right mouse button, and making 
the left mouse button practically useless is no option. The only thing 
that I think might be more in the spirit of the mode is that only 
focussed windows are raised when clicked on the border.

Bye,
