As a mac user with a 4-button trackball I've never understood why you  
would want to use your mouse to copy and paste text -- I have a  
keyboard for things like that.

Of course on a Mac I get to use cmd-C to copy and ctrl-C to SIGINT; if  
my OS confused control signals with menu shortcuts I might try to type  
with my mouse too.

For all the stupid uses of keyboard and mouse buttons Apple has pulled  
off over the years -- do I really need an "eject" key? and if I do,  
can't it at least eject whatever I have selected, instead of only  
working with the built-in drive? -- at least they kept enough modifier  
keys.
