Middle-click was always a problem with Gnome. I filed this

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=437280

for metacity (see upstream bug), but these type of bugs are almost 
systematically ignored.

+1 for changing the default (not because of middle click, but because 
I'm convinced any semi-serious poll would show spatial mode to not be 
popular at all).
