I just did a quick walk around our office of approximately 70 people

being an "easter-egg" it was documented in the "X Windows Systems
User Guide" on page 97 way back in 1990.
The 'easter-egg' comment grated on my brain also. It must have took me
all of 5 minutes of first using X back in '95 to find out 'middle
click to paste' and have never looked back. Not having it would be a
show stopper for me.
I must have about half a dozen mice around here and all have three
buttons (incl scroll wheel).
