This bug is only a problem when there is multitouch geis/grail code active, which is unity. When there is no such multitouch code active then the "normal" 3 finger click support in Xorg works. So the bug does not happen in regular Gnome (Ubuntu Classic) and KDE. If Unity-2D is safe too then that's good news.

Note the simple workaround that Alex mentioned in the Bug Description, so you can kind-of use middle click in Unity still.

Also note, you can a full fix for natty from ppa:vanvugt/unity
