Some mice have more than 3 buttons+mousewheel, where the mousewheel also
functions as a middle button (like recent models of Logitech mouseman, Microsoft
intellimouse explorer and probably many others). It would be an excellent new
feature to have the browsing component of Mozilla handle these extra mouse
buttons as Back/Forward actions. This feature has been available in IE for the
Windows platform at least for a few years now.
