Hrm... Perhaps we should not be thinking in terms of having two or three-button mouse?
How are varoius operations handled when you have a single-button mouse (as typically associated with Macintosh)?
How about popular touch devices such as iPad or iPhone? or Android tablets?
.. and let's not forget the obvious -- how do we use Web pages? Come to think of it, I don't recall using right-click much on Web pages...
