It does work, but it is a major pain in the pat00kus sometimes. Especially
with a mouse in 'emulate 3 buttons' mode. Which I am in 95% of the time. (And
no, I am not buying a mouse with 87 buttons on it; I use trackballs and my
favorite trackball has 2 buttons.)
I've had to resort quite often to repeatedly pushing f11 or f12 (depending on
the platform, osX or non-osX) + R to reset, and hoping it catches. 1 in 15
times it will.
It would be GREAT to be able to use a flag on the command line, or from within
the gui, to signal "send early startup menu buttons."
