I don't like excluding happy Mac users completely, so how about this:
* BListView and Tracker do as you say
* When you configure a one button mouse, the system uses the option key
+ click to emulate a second mouse button - Mac users always have an
option key :-)
The point is that this will be a system wide feature, and since the
option key is optional, it shouldn't hide any important application
functionality.
Bye,
Axel.
