> What are other peoples most common acme 'gotchas'?

when button-3 clicking through a file, i quite often jiggle the mouse
slightly on the click, and end up searching for a single character
instead of the whole word.

perhaps a little attention to timing could help here:  if i'm selecting
some text, i think i always take more than 1/2 a second to do it, so
perhaps a down-up motion of less than 1/2 (1/3?) a second could always
be taken as a single click.

i reckon the "selecting more than one line" problem could be partially
due to the fact that it's difficult to make straight horizontal lines
with the mouse, as the hand tends to describe an arc around the wrist,
so it'll tend to be lower at the right end of the arc.

i look forward to chris's hysteresis modifications :-)
