@vkc Different case, different feature, different context, but here's an earlier frustration with lefty copy-paste behavior On Computer.

@vkc I don't know that it will ever happen, and yes the fear may not be rational, but if it becomes a second-class feature who's to say what future bug will be deemed too difficult to fix, and then the feature axed entirely.

That being said I'm not out yelling about it, just watching from the sidelines. These are the first comments I've made about it.

As for Gnome extensions... suffice it to say I've had my share of bad experiences with them, they can be pretty janky.

@vkc the fear is that after being disabled by default, it will eventually be removed entirely.

I can understand being frustrated by accidental triggering, especially with the new fast scrolling super clicky mouse wheels.

I specifically buy a mouse that doesn't do this because I'm left-handed and copy paste almost exclusively with the middle button.

As a lefty, middle-click paste is a godsend. Otherwise, I have to move off the mouse to the keyboard and back.
