IMO, this is a bug. The Shift+Button3 = Button2 behaviour is
documented in the man page. I sent a (one-line) patch to Russ, but it
looks like it hasn't been applied. If you are in unix and you plan to
use 9vx (with shift and a 2 buttons mouse), just change this line in
src/9vx/x11/x11-itrans.c:

232c232
<               m->buttons |= 4;
---
>               m->buttons |= s & ShiftMask ? 2 : 4;

hth,
