There is no notion of middle button on Mac, hence right button is B2. It's documented. Current Tk 8.6 has even removed the <<PasteSelection>> binding from B2 on Aqua because of this (I've filed a Tk bug report to backport this to 8.5). 8.6 also defines a <<ContextMenu>> virtual event, which on Mac is tied to B2. Mac UI guidelines define use of 'right button' (when available) to be used for context menu clicks. So yeah, we should change this. :-)
