Subject: [PATCH] client/views: fix middle click prevention on buttons for
 modern browsers Browsers no longer fire the primary 'click' event for middle
 clicks. Old way kept for compatibility as it doesn't hurt anything. All
 browsers that support auxclick also have standardized MouseEvent.button
 values.
