It would be OK for me, but probably there was some reason why it has not
been made the default. Does someone know it?

But Windows apps may be using the middle button for other actions, and
besides that we'd need to add a Wine-specific window message which would be
posted on a middle-click instead of WM_PASTE, and some other
infrastructure. I don't think it would go well with the design concepts of
Wine.
