This makes a lot of sense to me.  I've always wondered why the "New" item
was under the left-button menu anyhow.  If it stays on the left, I'll
have to argue against making it the "no move" default of the pointer.  I
accidentally click on the root menu when trying to grab a window border
or titlebar _way_ too often for this to be convenient.  It would be far
worse to have unexpected xterms popping up at every misplaced root window
click.  But the _only_ purpose of the middle button under wmx is to open
up a window, so this makes it the logical location of the "New" menu and
eliminates the possible inconvenience of accidental xterm'ing via the
default click action.
