I've tried xmodmap, but unfortunately you can't actually unmap a mouse 
binding, all you can do a reorder the bindings, and you can't map multiple 
buttons to the same button (that I've been able to find). It just spits out 
an error if you try. xkbcomp and setxkbmap are just to ugly for me to wrap my 
brain around.
