Maybe it's some infection at IBM, but I never liked the color 
designations either. I have no clue which button on my Mac two button 
mouse is the red one without having to look it up, but I recently 
memorized which is the yellow one. Maybe I haven't written enough UI 
code yet...

I'd love to see a shift to left/center/right, or better Button1, 
Button2, Button3.
