Logitech Performance MX Darkfield mouse buttons support is incomplete

[Fabián Rodríguez]

The fingertip "Zoom" (Button 13) and "Switch apps" (Button 10) buttons are not mapped on this mouse.

The "Zoom" button should be mapped to Ctrl, thus enabling the zoom feature in most apps when scrolling the wheel (or "Super" if one prefers the Zoom feature provided by Compiz).

The "Switch apps" button should be mapped to the Scale feature in Compiz.

As a workaround, such buttons can be mapped to the above or to other functions using the compizconfig-settings-manager package.

I have documented the buttons and expected behavior here (also attached to this bug):

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
