Thank you Peter! This is a great workaround and I will use it in the meantime. In fact it is almost nicer than all that clicking.
cheers!!

For anyone on Linux, there is a nice workaround using your capslock-key
as a mouse button as posted on this list by i think Frank some time ago:
(You might need to check the numeric keycodes of your keyboard with xev
first).
# disable capslock
xmodmap -e "remove lock = Caps_Lock"
# set to mouse button
xmodmap -e "keycode 66 = Pointer_Button1"
# turn things on:
xkbset m
#########################################
# turn it off again:
xmodmap -e "keycode 66 = Caps_Lock"
xkbset -m
xmodmap -e "add lock = Caps_Lock"
mfg, Peter
